I read the book a second time, and although I enjoyed it the first time, I enjoyed it a little more now. The main reason was that I wasn't confused at the beginning and knew the motives, the world of the book, and overall it made sense to me from the beginning. I found the writing and storytelling style to be very enjoyable. I also really liked the story and it was very nicely laid out.

This book is not for the casual reader, I would recommend reading this book as a part of a book club or group so that you can have someone to discuss it with because the psychological themes can be highly confusing.
