I've been listening to the audiobooks and more than anything else I've been struggling with keeping track of the characters due to the names being so Chinese. It's very Western of me, but I can't remember any of the names from minute to minute.

I also think the narrator is kinda meh, and that's important in an audiobook.

LoL aren't we all the same. I'm Asian (not Chinese) and sometimes I can't keep track of Western names in movies and shows, too. :))

Hah, I can't keep track of any names, native tongue or not.

I'm sure.

I try to be open - I really do. But it's hard!

I have ADHD. I gave up on the Hobbit at the dinner with the dwarves. It was like trying to read Egyptian lol.
