I couldn't stay focused. I was listening to the audiobook, and when I came to the part when Anne passionately declares her love for the man in the brown suit, I thought, Huh? When did this happen? I actually went back to the beginning to start over, because clearly I must have missed something. And then I missed it again, I guess, since I still have no clear idea what caused her outburst about undying love for Brown Suit.
After that, I stopped worrying about whether I missed something. I just accepted that the book was not holding my attention and kept going.
