Considering I didn't really enjoy reading this book, I liked this book? I found it more fun to consider it after reading it than to actually read it which is interesting. Collins seems to be wanting to think about philosophy and the purpose of humanity and what can happen when we don't agree/some people choose a negative view. It's also a study in human complacency and conformity, which has my inner sociology/English major brain titillating. So yeah it took me awhile to get through and I didn't entirely love it, but I haven't been able to stop thinking about it so that counts for something.
