Not by much, mind you. The authors still felt the need to bring up how Interesting Protagonit&#8217;s lesbian friend is a lesbian. they managed to bring it up naturally in dialogue in book 4, so this is a regression, quality-wise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love Mysteries. They&#8217;re my flavorite types of stories to listen to and read, alongside thrillers. I&#8217;m not one to attempt to figure out the mystery, I prefer to let it unfold naturally. In this instance, it may as well have had a neon sign pointing towards the outcum. There was a twist I wasn&#8217;t able to put together, not that I was trying. I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s a much better mystery than book 4, at least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuing the cumparison with book 4, book 4 it felt like it was in and out in no time. There wasn&#8217;t much to the mystery and the story was overall disappointing. Book 5 was mostly world-building and didn&#8217;t repeat a lot of the plot points that were getting annoying in the other books. It sucks that it took 5 books for the writing to (mostly) improve, but it does make my outlook on the future novels more bright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The narration overall was alright. I got sick of him constantly saying &#8220;O&#8221; instead of &#8220;Zero&#8221; for numbers. O isn&#8217;t a number, I will never stop finding that insufferably annoying. I always get a chuckle out of him having to narrate Interesting Protagonist&#8217;s parents over the phone. He does those scenes so well, I forget it&#8217;s an audiobook in those moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOTE<\/strong>: This copy was provided to me free of charge as a digital review copy.
