- Notes: This book was fantastic and had me on an emotional rollercoaster. It is a story about self-discovery, finding oneself, and learning who to trust. It also touches on the need for restructuring society. Although I could go on about this book, I'll briefly mention the others. It made me think about our world today and how society needs to be restructured to avoid certain classes being more superior than others. I highly recommend reading it.
