Fathoms: The World in the Whale by Rebecca Giggs
3.0
Potentially one of my most annoying audiobook experiences. Whales are my favourite, history, biological facts and mythology all blended into a creative exploration aimed towards furthering protection and conservation sounds exactly like it might be my favourite book.
Perhaps it was a personal distaste for the narrator, but I struggled hard to finish this book. I found passages aggravatingly self-absorbed and irrelevant but others illuminating and informed. Would recommend on the basis of cool whale facts and perspectives but it was in places very irksome.
