I was completely taken in by the first chapter, couldn’t wait to read more, and then went on a roller coaster from there - alternating between thinking the book was trash to appreciating the evocative descriptions of the environment and the movement over large periods of time. I cried at the end, although only two tears. It was a strange experience.
