The beginning was good, I was really hooked, but I just got to a part where he hadn't talked about the investigation for a long while and I found I didn't want to listen to random facts about random people in the police department...

I don't know enough to start for the quality of the content in this book, but I absolutely loved the audiobook. It was so nice and relaxing, felt like listening to sir David Attenborough!

I've thought about this book a lot since finishing it, and I still can't seem to figure out how I feel about it... I like the author's choice for the perspective through which the story is told, because it gets the point of the book across the most efficiently... but it's also a perspective I don't enjoy reading. So I think the intention of the story itself was great, but the reading experience wasn't that great
