2.5 stars, im gonna be generous with the rating.
it took me half a year to finish this book, i found the writing style so bland and boring. although the ending of the book was good, it couldve been 300 pages shorter. almost nothing happened in the story, the cartographer metaphor that they kept repeating was so goofy in my opinion. i did enjoy about all the subjects they touched, it was just extremely repetitive which made me annoyed.
