marcicatI am now a whopping FIVE HOURS into the 14-hour audiobook, and still going strong! Strong-ish, at least.
The thing about a five hour audiobook is that when you reach the five hour mark, you can think to yourself 'well, thank goodness they've wrapped that up and everything will be fine now! good job all!'
But in a 14-hour audiobook, I'm thinking more along the lines of 'I wonder what's about to go wrong next, because I'm pretty sure there's not going to be just nine hours of happy-ever-after epilogue.' (I mean, also they haven't figured out the murder mystery plot, but I am admittedly not very invested in that.)
It can get very stressful, is what I'm saying.
