3.0

This book is really good in parts and... not entirely consistently good. I cried in the middle (any parent will know where) and thought at that point I would rate the book four stars, but ended up skimming the end. Even though the moral philosophy that is developed in the novel is one I basically already agreed with, and even though I enjoyed the lush detailed descriptions elsewhere in the book, I couldn't stay focused on the panegyrics to life and the universe that filled the book towards its end. The detailed visualization of the moral philosophy is not religious but definitely spiritual and I guess I have a low tolerance for that.
