Towards the end I was skipping pages wishing it to be over sooner. I didn't give it enough attention to warrant a thorough critique, but on the surface I found it very tedious (probably because it reminded me of going to church).

The morals and themes explored were plain: people are stupid, god will not save you etc. The writing was simple. Little in this text challenges you.

There were some enjoyable moments however.
