Remarkably Bright Creatures

I added this to my list after several MMD Book Clubbers recommended it; I opted for audio because Marin Ireland is a favorite narrator. The tone and style remind me of J.

Marcellus is not long for this world, but before he goes he is determined to assist in solving two early mysteries pertaining to the humans he's grown fond of. I enjoyed this and it worked well on audio; Michael Urie joins Marin Ireland to narrate.
