So, on the whole I thought this was pretty good. HOWEVER. It was dense and long and VERY religious and religiously political. There’s a bunch of (obviously) outdated bs in here but it does make sense for the story and its time. I really liked our two main protagonists they were interesting people, especially William. I also cracked up laughing at the hypocrisy and the GAY.
