I think it's good. Great even. But I felt that I often didn't find a reason to turn to the next page and that there felt as if there was no reason to keep reading. The reason why I still think so highly of it is because when it shines, it shines! There were some chapters where I felt glued to the book and couldn't stop reading. It also poses deep questions about your identity and who you're born to be. To summerixe I think that it's a good book with it's ups and downs but I don't think it's a masterpiece as some people would claim!
