3.0

At risk of sounding stupid, I just didn’t get it. 
The first half was very good. But after the midpoint, things got way too philosophical for my taste. If that’s what you’re into, higher thinking and so on, then this is a book for you.

Minor: Sexism and Pedophilia

At one point, Rick has sex with an android that is described as “childlike” and “definitely a girl, not a woman.”

2.0

The book has a lot of interesting concepts, especially some that didn’t make it into the movie at all, like the religion Mercerism and the whole electric animals thing. 

But there were so many things I didn’t enjoy, most importantly the protagonist. We are obviously supposed to symphasize with him, which is just not possible.
