Do not know how many times I've been driving down the road peacefully listening to an audiobook when my family or friends start a conversation in a group chat that pings every 3 to 10 seconds with new replies or notifications that someone "loved" a comment or some shit.
My phone: "The truth was evident all along. In fact, the killer was..." PING ... "evident all along..." PING... "evident all along. In fact,..." PING... "evident all along. In fact, the killer was right under..." PING...
Me: "For the love of God, SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
Phone: PING
One time I had this happen while I was listening to one of the Emperor of Thorns books. The scene being described was of scrotal mutilation and my brother kept texting me during the reading.
I didn't want to hear about scrotal mutilation that many times.
Otherwise, excellent YA book series, audio or otherwise.
Oh lord, hahaha. Crossing my legs at the thought. Nice.
