The Penelopiad

This little story was good but definitely could have been longer and/or had more substance. It was before the big “retelling” craze so it gets points for that.

Also the audiobook has this weird demonic distortion thing going for the chorus and it is uniquely awful. I can't believe there was a person in a booth somewhere who obviously had to show this cacophony of noises to someone higher up in production and they both went, “yeah, people will listen to this, happily”. Both of those people should be charged with war crimes against humanity.
