turnercm 's review for:

Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
4.25
reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

When I first read this in my early twenties, it felt extremely profound and was instantly five stars. Over a decade later, I can still appreciate the overall purpose of the book and find value in the message, but I am no longer considering it a flawless take.
