Wow! Chris Whitaker provides a very unique reading experience in We Begin at The End, and George Newbern's narration of the audiobook is perfection. It reminds me of Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger, one of my all-time favorite novels - high praise indeed.
The writing style is quite spare so it took me a bit to settle in, but once I did, I was there for every carefully chosen word. I came to care deeply for this cast of characters, every one of them seriously flawed - I'll be thinking of them for quite some time. The plot includes several themes - found family, coming-of-age, and mysterious deaths with shades of a police procedural and courtroom drama - all come together as a cohesive and satisfying result.
If you tried reading this and didn't finish, please give this story another chance, preferably on audio.
