News of the World

Short Review: This is an enjoyable short read. It will be compared to True Grit because of the vague similarities in story. But the prose is more like Cormac McCarthy (but far less depressing). I think it was over hyped to me. Because I enjoyed it, but didn't think it was a particularly unique or groundbreaking story. It was much better than some others books I could have read. So that part I am happy about. I still very much recommend it. But I think it is a better book with less expectations.

The audiobook was by Grover Gardner and that was a good choice of narrators for the story.
