4.0

I found it tough to rate this book. The prose is strong and poetic and earthy, and the musings of the main character often struck a deep chord within me. Still, something about the plot never quite reached perfect harmony for me, something about it out of my grasp enough to save me from giving it a more perfect rating, but overall I really did enjoy this journey and these incredible characters.
