It took me a little bit to get the hang of the style of this book, but I am glad I stuck with it. I enjoyed how richly each of the characters were developed and how their stories overlapped in interesting ways.

3.7 Liked some stories in this book more than others, but it was nicely weaved together in the end.

Some of the stories are decent. Most contain a bunch of preachy aphorisms I could do without and eventually started skipping past/over. Even the decent stories go too far in their bid to make a point.
