I can't believe how much time I've gained by listening while cooking and doing chores. No more interruptions – the auto-rewind feature is a genius solution for seamless listening. A perfectly acceptable audiobook that fulfilled its purpose. The narration was competent if not particularly memorable, and the production quality was standard for the genre. It served as decent background entertainment during mundane tasks. It was fine. The narrator did an adequate job but nothing about the performance particularly stood out to me. Got me through my commute though.
