The Man Who Was Thursday was an interesting read. Listening to it in audiobook format I don't think was the best choice for me, only because some things got misremembered to not remembered at all since it would act as background noise. I did love the narrator though, and think that his narration did help me to pay slightly more attention. The book itself was odd, but enjoyable. The plot twists were unexpected, and the overall end message was well done. I just think that it was slightly longer than it honestly needed to be and that on a next read I'd prefer to listen to it less as background noise or buy a physical copy.
