Thought Provoking but a Task to Read
3 stars
I read this for a book club, so especially tried to read closely and take notes. The book had an interesting structure with multiple characters that you get to know well. To me the book unfortunately started to drag about halfway through. Lots of action but very detailed, so it required intense focus to read. The book really made me think, so I am glad I read it, though I think if it weren’t for the book club I may not have finished this one because it was hard to casually pick up and get excited about. It is very thought provoking with a clear message.
