First off I’d like to say I enjoyed the book it was enjoyable, but what really got me was the audio. I found myself cringing to the swallowing or almost gulping and different mouth sound the reader would make and at times even smacking noises. I studied audio engineering and have recorded a little bit of vocals myself condenser mics pick up a lot of extra annoying sounds I mean everything, however it is so easy to edit this out in the mixing stage. And there are techniques the reader can do to minimize these sounds like using pop filters and pulling back your head to swallow. Honestly it drove me crazy I hate lip smacking, and gulping noises. I found it hard to get through the story.
