Ahm, your exposure says "this is an incredible book, maybe more descriptive than philosophical but nevertheless one that understands the mental processes of people, tough I personally didn't feel it was overwhelmingly addictive" and that seems incredible, I genuinely was thrilled by reading this post.

Thank you for your kind feedback! I recently got back into reading after years of post college burn out and I missed discussing books a lot. This is very encouraging to read!

I love that you described it as an incredibly thought out book, in the context of your own opinion that that book in particular wasn't obssessively addictive. let me say, first, good to know you are getting back from that post college burn out, however may it have affected you, hope you are doing good... second, for me, after college, i feel no book is obsessively addictive, even if I am loving them. makes it a bit hard to finish them eheh but I may partially understand.

Often when reading thrillers you'll find some little thread or two that never really pan out in the end and that always got on my nerves. Harris really planned out the even the subtle details through the characters.

Maybe it is my post college burnout or the new wave of creative writing that makes it hard on top of the resurgent refining of the pallet but it sure does take me a while to find the next story. Thank you for your kind words, I hope you're doing good as well!
