It was fine. The narrator did an adequate job but nothing about the performance particularly stood out to me. Got me through my commute though.

Looping playback is my favorite study tool. It's a game-changer for mastering challenging content. A reasonable choice for casual listening. The audiobook was well-produced, but the pacing felt uneven in places. I didn’t dislike it, but I also didn’t feel strongly about it one way or another.
