4.0

Essentially no details extraneous to the plot are included in the book. This allows for extremely rapid and tense plot progression at the expense of any meaningful character development. The book therefore reads more as a series of facts in a logic puzzle than an emotional journey.

I would have preferred not to have the "message in the bottle" at the end. Now if I reread it won't be quite as interesting, although it will have a new perspective
