How I wished sometimes that I could join him in his stark, right-angled world, where everything was either right or wrong and there was no doubt which was which. What unimaginable luxury, never to wrestle with whether or why, never to lie awake nights wondering what if.

I thought it was an easy read, though it wasn't really something I would have picked out for myself. It did lead to some GREAT discussion though, which was awesome.

I am on goodreads, but I haven't updated properly. I keep meaning to do that as one of my procrastinatory tools. :D

This is almost sad, I think. That people can be so content in ignorance and complacency, and that society lets them be.
