I just didn’t get on with the audio version of this book, I found it very hard to concentrate on. If I could find it in paperback I’m sure I’d enjoy it more. 

Really just couldn’t get on with the narrator and her lack of attempting any accent. 

Would probably enjoy the book more in paperback but I was an hour in and dreading another 10 hours…

Audible stopped the book from being freely available - I was enjoying it buy not quite enough to pay money for it right now

I have been wanting to read this book for years, having heard so much about it, it’s such an iconic book in baseball history.

Unfortunately, the first part of the book is filled with casual racism and extremely creepy behaviour towards women that would definitely get you arrested nowadays. 

If I was reading the book, I may well have been able to get past it as a historical thing, but I was listening to the audio book narrated by the author and to hear him laughing as he talks about the way they used to spy on women who thought they were safe in their own hotel rooms just freaked me out, I couldn’t bear it. 

So I’m DNF’ing this book for now, and if I come back to it later it’ll definitely be in printed form.
