firstly, it wasn't "bad". just wasn't my thing. so I can't give it three stars as that would be saying "i liked it". this reminds me that I shouldn't decide to not read a book simply due to a low online star rating. it was like an episode of Cold Case or Without A Trace, the tv shows. I didn't feel any satisfaction from it, or that I was benefiting from it re wisdom...also the message seemed to be that we should all throw aside our own selfish dreams and not pursue them until everyone else has a warm place to sleep and something to eat. I just can't agree with that, but I kept reading so as to give the author a chance to change my mind, in case I might learn something. I finally decided that reading it was seeming too much like a chore, that I was only continuing so that I would know I had finished it. so at page 227, with forty pages left, I stopped reading it, and took a few minutes to quick read/scan through the last pages. do not endeavor to read this again, or the author. waste of my time, and I was rather bored by it every time I sat down to read it.
