Recieved this audio book for free in return for an honest review. Mild spoilers.
I think it's a unique and interesting take on how to tell a story, one I was personally pretty intrigued by as I grew up scrawling "wheresgeorge.com" on my $1 bills in order to track them across the US.
I found the stories of the British pound note to be way more interesting than the American dollar ones. They seemed more in depth and authentic. The American ones end in a little hyperbole that I didn't feel quite fit the rest of the tone of the book, but I can't say it wasn't warranted considering the topic at hand.
Long strings of dialogue made it hard to tell who was talking when, which made it hard to follow sometimes.
Most of the characters were pretty interesting, save for every single female, who except for maybe 2, were all simply sexy cookie cutter bombshells used only for plot devices in sex, mistreatment, and violence (which happens in real life yes, but I prefer some variety), and I found it to be eyeroll inducing (especially a scene with a dog being a "lucky boy") and uninspired after a while, along with being described rather repetitively.
Lots of adult themes and violence, it should probably come with a heads up of some kind for that. Don't mind it at all, just didn't expect it.
I'd recommend this if someone is looking for a truly unique take on storytelling, with a heavy disclaimer on the adult themes and how boring the chicks are.
