I think this book is an interesting perspective on a lot of issues that do exist in this world. However, it is very long and basically suffering every page. I think you should be aware of that before you read it. I definitely noticed my mood worsening everytime I read it. And I felt down for sometimes even 1-2 days afterwards. So be prepared. Other than that I would still encourage people to read it just because it touches subjects that are very real and things that are happening right now. It is definitely thought provoking, which I guess is its purpose.
