4.0

The thing I love most about this book is that everything mentioned, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, matters, and will be brought up again near the end of the book. The plot might seem to meander along - but don't be fooled! It's all important! It truly is a holistic approach with the plot coming full circle and ending pretty close to how it began - except now everyone knows so much more than at the beginning. Great for those of us who remember tiny plot details and wonder what ever happened to that [person/object/place] that was briefly mentioned in chapter two... in short, perfect for insanely organized detail-oriented people like me.
