I found this audiobook a difficult listen. The audio quality is poor and Donna Tart as the narrator did not make much sense, she may be  good writer but she is not a great narrator and the fact this story largely focuses on a group of young men, having a woman as their voice was often distracting and often took me out of the story. I cant say I understand the hype around this book. There's about 300 pages worth of waffle and the characters are all unlikable, unrelatable and pretentious. Im ok with morally grey characters and I realise the point of making them so unlikeable but this was just boring. It's not a terrible book its just ok.
