Ummmm.... I was very interested in the topic and I LOVED the cover and the title but uhhh... it's giving me "white man who loves hearing his own thoughts and wrote a book". I don't think the writing or flow was that good and there are some lines where I can imagine somebody smugly writing thinking it's so smart, but it's really not. [Perhaps this is part of the Saul character! It just annoyed me throughout the book.]
Granted, I thought the near-future tech infused world (or maybe already here in some more tech-y companies than mine??) was cool, the evangelist concept was interesting, and the family dynamics felt very real. I just really did not care about this Saul guy who seems SO head empty and the writing was not eloquent enough for me to confidently say that some of the whack things were intentional.
