3.0

This is a distinctly average book. Considering it is satire, there were only really a few moments where I thought- "That's really clever" as a lot of it felt very on-the-nose and un-subtle.
However, I think the book works well in the audio format as it is engaging and the narration was excellent and well-suited to the book.
