At couple times a bit too detailed, almost repetitive, overall, it is well-written and every word is utilized and has a purpose. There are no moments of “why was that told?” or “what a waste of a few pages.” The vivid writing made me want pictures but did replace some of the need for pictures.

A book thoroughly chronicling a person's search for identity and world view. Stating many questions and wonders most people have while also presenting clearly the perspective of others. Due to its intelligence and clear language, I enjoyed it.
