I did enjoy reading this book, but for the first have of this book I had no idea what was going on, and I’m still a bit unclear on some parts (that’s probably mostly my fault tho). Some parts were a little boring, but it was also really interesting at some parts especially towards the end. Overall, it was a pretty good book.
