listened to the audiobook. the full cast barely made a dent vis a vis making the characters connect with the listener. you'd think it's more of a plot based book but nothing really happens, either. the format sometimes leads to interesting moments, but the novelty quickly wears out. excited to see what they do with the show, though it'll prolly be crap. I still enjoyed it, of course, hence the three stars, but i shudder to imagine what it would feel like reading the written form of this novel.
