Story
Tech millionaire Miles Cookson has more money than he can ever spend and everything he could dream of - except time. He has recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness, and there is a 50 percent chance that it can be passed on to the next generation. For Miles, this means taking a long hard look at his past. Two decades ago, a young, struggling Miles was a sperm donor. Somewhere out there, he has kids - nine of them. And they might be about to inherit both the good and the bad from him - maybe his fortune, or maybe something much worse.

Unlikeable characters
The story itself would be an easy listen, but the characters are just maddening. The main character is too sanctimonious to be genuine; she’s just not likeable. The others are worse.
I really wanted to love this book, but the protagonist was headache inducing.
The narrator does a pretty good job.

A bit frustrating
The story was ok, but I found especially the main character frustrating… so weak/incompetent it was almost unbelievable. I was able to see almost every “twist” coming way in advance. Overall, just an ok listen.

Frustratingly Good
The first half of this book I was annoyed, annoyed with character choices, annoyed with how they were presenting themselves it was just so ridiculous and then it slowly started dropping truth bombs and the book just drew you in. The end of this book is unexpected and made up for all the frustrations I felt toward the characters.
I voice(s) were a little silly but it worked and it made the book thoroughly enjoyable! Highly recommend!
