4.0

While this was out of my comfort zone genre wise, I’m so happy I read it.  I surprisingly liked this book so much more than I was expecting.  The writing style was really nice to read and while some of the plot confused me at first I at least had an entertaining time reading it. Plus the fact the book itself being relevant today with a lot of things going on with censorship.  Reading a book about banning books… in a country (United States) that has banned this book is peak level irony.
