"Who Cares" Acters
Fiction, for the most part is about people who don't exist and (in reality), don't really matter. The beauty of good writing makes you invested is make believe people and the things that happen to them. Despite trying my hardest, I just couldn't connect with any of the six characters that contribute to this story. While they have realistic dimensions, there is nothing interesting nor redeeming about any of them. They were like tortilla chips without salt.
Audiobook
It's hard to connect with a recording when you don't care about the events. I felt like the narrator, Jen Tullock did a good job.
