What I like about this book is that the author lays emphasis on the title of each chapter intending to educate the readers more about reality including education, health, religion, emotions and many other.
Another thing I like about this book is the fact that with each foreign words the author used in the book, it comes along the meaning (italicized). This would stop the readers from searching the dictionary while reading.
One thing I don't like about this book is that in the first few chapters the author introduces new characters with no enough clarification which can make the story a little confusing for the readers to know who is who. But the rest of the chapters are well written focusing on each character one at a time.
This book is professionally edited. I rate this book 3 out of 4 starts. I recommend this book to people who would like to redress their ideology about life and it will be suitable for religious people as this book lays emphasis on religion in it vast knowledge. I found no profane word in this book, also there are no sex scene in this book.
