Interesting read to get into philosophy. Some parts did feel as if you were reading textbook passages since it does go over the history of philosophy but overall the story it revolved around and plot twist wasn’t too bad. There were some weird passages that I think did not need to be in there.

Debería leerlo todos los adolescentes.
Si yo fuera presidente, como en ese programa de TV, sería obligatorio en ESO.
De una forma brillante nos introduce en el mundo de la filosofía.

I'm finally done reading this blasted book. It's not a bad book. It's more of a "Brussels sprouts" book. I felt like it was good for me, and I ought to read it, but I didn't particularly enjoy it. There were some clever plot lines, but some of it was a bit too absurd for my taste. My biggest issue was that I have never taken a philosophy class and felt the need to understand and remember all the philosophers and philosophies woven into the book. It seemed more like work than pleasure. And yet, there were several passages I underlined, a few I quoted on social media. There are parts of this book that will stick with me and affect how I think about the world. Isn't that the hallmark of a really good book?
