-The ideas in this book are interesting but i really did not like the actual story or writing style.
-This does not need to be as graphic as it is.

On the writing style: I thought it was very beautifully written, descriptive but not very much so, the exact kind of thing I like. The way it was written and the analogies and the non - linear storytelling in some parts came together so well, it was immersive in the best way.
