4.0

I don’t know how to describe this book. I ate it up in a single day, loved that it was short. It really gave me a place for some introspective thought and made me reevaluate my own patterns, habits, and life. It was a clear example that it’s easier to judge others than yourself. Nonetheless, I think this book would resonate with a lot of people especially during this day and age of debilitating victimization. I didn’t like the ending, I see what Butler was trying to do but I didn’t like it. Seemed abrupt.
