Maybe it’s my conservative Christian upbringing that made me dislike this book. I understand it’s a commentary on how society was and still is. We tend to be obsessive about things and people mostly. And in our journey to obtain them, we go down roads that are not healthy for us. The writing was great, the descriptions, everything. Just that for me I just couldn’t get into the book.
