      I'm so glad I found this on here instead of buying it independently on Amazon. Though, maybe I would have enjoyed it more reading it with the voice in my mind instead of having to listen to this narrator's crap-eating sneer through every sentence. Skip around to the states you're interested in if you must. There are better, similar books.
