It's pretty interesting in showing trends we never would have noticed, but it's really quick to jump to conclusions (correlation -> causation especially) that sound insightful but are barely connected to the evidence.

It was a pretty good book. However, the characters were incredibly flat, and the message was a bit dull and too similar to anything about preserving the environment. It was also pretty predictable.

Liked the atmosphere and the characterization. Interesting seeing the dynamics between the characters unfold.  If you like books with an unreliable main character/narrator, you might like it.

masterful atmosphere and visceral descriptions but hampered by weak characterization. relies too heavily on the gross-factor
