The Seventh Perfection

3.5

I enjoyed this book for its unique storytelling. 2nd person perspective and on top of that we only hear the person's answers to our silent protagonist (like a phonecall) definitely changed my listening experience with the audiobook. After characters spoke during questioning and there was a brief silence, I caught myself on the edge of my seat (metaphorically, because I was cooking) wondering what our protagonist must be saying or asking, and what the answer is going to be. As a mystery, I think this unique way of storytelling was great. Unfortunately, because this is a novella, there isn't a lot to get attached to enough and I wasn't very intrigued by its world which is a shame.
