I'm not quite sure how to rate this book. I absolutely adore it and truly believe it has changed the way I see the world but I did have some issues with it - mainly that it should have been about 350 pages rather than 625. I love big books but I felt that the first 350-400 pages had me in awe and I could not stop reading but the last 300 pages or so were a bit more of a slog, even though I did enjoy parts of the second half.

I would definitely tell people it is a new favourite but it's definitely not perfect.
