“The idea that the Ancients had a different way of relating to the world, that they experienced it as something that interacted with them. When they observed the world, the world observed them back.”

I read this book in a single day, swept away by it immediately like a leaf in the tides.
Genuinely mesmerising. I think whoever reads this should give it a shot.

A lot of times, we feel the need to have to reason a 3 star review. A 3 star isn't a 'bad' book. I think bad books are undeserving of stars at all, or...1 star if it has to have a star in the system.
Mediocre books are 2 stars. I don't see a reason why a book shouldn't be written, but it can be better written that what I just read.
3 stars...are okay. They're not...terrible, but they're not great. With my reviews, I'm very opinionated. The stars really only revolve around my opinion of the story. And I fully feel that certain stories should only be read during periods of time in our lives. A story I read ten years ago might feel different if I read it today.
The same applies. This book might deserve a better rating if I read it later in my life.
I liked the story, not because of the contents or material, but rather, it gave me the idea to reflect upon my own experiences. A little spoilery, but how I would interpret life if I lost my memory. Or what my goals in life would be if I woke up in another world.
I felt the writing a bit dry (As is my writing) but I still felt this book was 'one step below "enjoyed"' on my emotions meter.

I love me a good labyrinth. Reminiscent of Gene Wolfe and Shutter Island, where things are not as they seem, but much more accessible.
