this book was a bit hard for me to rate because on the one hand, I can’t deny that the idea behind it is brilliant and it’s lauded for a good reason. On the other hand, it could be very slow and difficult and I’ve never taken so long to read a book before. And it gave me a months long reading slump. Still, none of that made it a bad book in my eyes, it was just very dense. 

It helped a bit to remember when it was written.
