this book has no business being as long as it is. the amount of perspectives really threw me and it bothered me that they weren’t all featured equally. a lot of the book was really boring there were some parts in the middle that interested me but by the time i got to the end i was losing my desire to read it. as well the use of old english language makes it harder for me to understand whats going on at times. ultimately it was partially entertaining but i couldve spent the month it took me to read this to read something else
