Yes, it's thick, serious and emotional, BUT every single page is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY (and I'm craving to read so much more).

I do feel that the amount of blank space/“dull moments” (while normal in daily life) was a bit excessive at times, and contributed to some moments of lost momentum in the story that made me enjoy it slightly less at times. This was particularly true during the end -
However, I cannot emphasise enough how much I would and will continue to recommend this boom to those I know. Beyond its perfect blend of simply put, yet insightful and intriguing content, I believe the lessons it has to tell are of crucial importance to read about and work to understand. I certainly learned much, and hope that other books can emulate a similar harmony of accessibility and wisdom to impart.
