(3 stars)

Entertaining and "worth a listen". Fun book. I have to disagree that the reader of the last chapter was "excruciating". Like many volunteer readers she had her defects, but nothing horrible. Having read the previous review, I was honestly looking forward to hearing the terrible reader. I was dissappointed when the book ended and I had not been "excruciated" .
