I feel like i liked the book but also i feel like i didn’t. i think this book had a lot of the same problems as dune , there is a lot of philosophical mumbo jumbo that kind of gets in the way of a pretty good plot. the beginning is insanely good. the family drama is well written and the characters and their motivations make sense. as the book goes on the dialogue gets bland and circular and i started to stop caring about certain characters and plot lines. 
ghanima is that girl, leto was fine and then gets weird, KEEP HIK AWAY FROM ANY AFAB PERSON.
