As a 50+ year old woman with little to no interest in Science Fiction, I would always just roll my eyes when I would come across yet another Reddit post about this book. And then, I broke down and got the audiobook since it was on sale. And, wow, I was soooo wrong. I really enjoyed it and my eyes were “leaking” so much at the ending.
So I thought I would become one of those people and say if you haven’t listened yet, then you REALLY should. The narrator was outstanding and I think that helped me get through some of the more “technical” parts that might have stopped me if I was “reading” and not “listening”.
I love love love PHM. Still trying to get my wife to read it…
Oh I’ve been there. Finally convinced my wife and it became a favorite of hers!
