I did Project Hail Mary two books back, so I won't revisit that for a while. I HIGHLY recommend the audiobook though; I honestly can't see how it could hold up in text form, it feels like it was made to be an audiobook.
I'm currently on the Bobiverse books (#1) by Dennis E Taylor.
I was so curious about how that book could work NOT as an audiobook so I snagged a copy from my library to check it out. SPOILERS: >!Rocky's speech is depicted as musical notes. Not nearly as impactful as the audiobook.!<
Is Rocky's speech in the audiobook literally music?
Yes! The more complex the speech, the more complex the music. It's really cool.
Maybe I'll listen, then. I read the book two years ago, I think I'm ready to experience it again. Thank you!
I almost wish I'd never read bobiverse so I could experience it again for the first time.
