I had read this aloud to my wife a good number of years ago, maybe 10 years? and when the last volume of the Book of Dust came out I started reading that to her. We're about 3/4 of the way through it now, but I found myself. - we both found ourselves - rather confused, having forgotten so much from this and the Secret Commonwealth that I decided that I really needed to read the first one again. I started rereading it to my wife, but she decided she didn't want to take the time so I continued to myself. She's going back and forth about it though and most recently talked about listening to the audiobook version, which I've seen people here and on Mastodon highly recommend.
