The book is thought provoking and interesting. I found myself rooting for Deckard, almost despite myself at times. The philosophical questions raised are interesting and I enjoyed that no answers are provided, leaving me thinking long after I finished reading. 

I did not enjoy the way the women (android or human) are treated by the narrative. The writing is very much a product of its time and the objectification is not enjoyable to read. Otherwise, excellent book.

this book is... beautifully written. such an interesting story and told so so well, so unbelievably engaging. when people say this is a must read they're 100% right - i think everyone should read this book at some time or other. it's actually so good i can't even put it into words. invokes strong emotion with a variety of characters, twists and turns, always at the edge of your seat. this book is wonderful.
