There’s a lot of good here! The writing style os so good, love this author. For some reason I slogged through the middle of this though, maybe too much social commentary for me? In any case, it didn’t propel me forward and I finished only due to a book club discussion I’m planning to go to. I’m glad I finished it because the ending made me appreciate many of the parts that were not that interesting to me. He ties it all together eventually.

Parts of this book felt loooong, but overall I liked how the pieces came together.
