On the negative side, this also felt like the life story of a cult leader rising to power by preying on those in desolate situations. The whole religious movement felt weird and when they repeatedly recruit those who come from the most desolate situations and are the most vulnerable and sort of force them into the movement and ideals felt jarring and uncomfortable.
Overall great read, just left some weird tastes in my mouth.
