This book is even better the second time. The first time I spent the first half being like, “why is this man so mean?” and this time I spent the first half being like, “why is everyone so mean to this man?”.

With a reread I feel confident calling this one of my favorite books. Just thinking about it gets me emotional. Also, JK Simmons narration was excellent, I'm not sure why it's so hard to track down.
