4.0

I really enjoyed this book. The main character heads west, away from the dirty city, hoping that going on some senseless hunt in the wilderness will give meaning to his life and allow him to "find himself." I didn't rate it 5 stars because part 2 (which is the bulk of the book) seemed to drag and it was a bit difficult to get through, but I'm really glad I stuck with it until the end.
