I loved this book, and if you ever want to read it again, get the audiobook. It's narrated by actor Will Patton, and is excellent. I can still see all the settings in the book, just thinking about it now.

Reply to Does this mean audiobooks aren't for me? by IAmNotAFetish
I love audiobooks, but narrators can be a real problem for me. Most of them are great to decent and I rarely stop reading a book because I don't like the narrator.
I checked out the narrator of your book, listened to a minute or so, and was almost immediately annoyed. I also thought she sounded familiar, so I checked her out. It turns out that she narrates "The Bean Trees" by Barbara Kingsolver. I have read three of Kingsolver's books and loved them, so downloaded Bean Trees last summer. I tried and tried and tried to listen, but omg the narrator just drove me nutso. Sooooo, perhaps you should try another fiction book. :) Do a search in this sub for "suggest an audiobook" and you will find plenty of suggestions. And, as mentioned in another comment, start with "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir. :)
Also, I totally forget books altogether after a couple of weeks and always have. When I read print books, I would usually have to go back a few pages to refresh where I left off, and I do the same with audiobooks.
