I don’t know how to rate this book. The ending is very well done and emotional. What the author was trying to say with the book is intriguing and meaningful, but excluding the ending, I don’t think he pulled it off. Especially the lesson with the 3rd person. I do not feel that the text showcases what the author was trying to convey.
