I originally added this book to my TBR and bought it because a then-friend wrote his thesis on it. I stopped reading it after falling out majorly with him, and I picked it up again just recently. I feel relieved at the fact that I can separate someone I so deeply dislike from this book too because it was wonderful. It took me a strangely long time to read this for some reason, but it was still enjoyable and full of good lessons and perspective.
