I wonder if this is for the rewrite or the first version.

I read the first version and thought the first half was good and that the second half felt clunky. To the point where i don’t recommend it to anyone (not a huge negative, there’s just better books out there).

I had the opposite reaction. The second half was garbage, but the first half was so good and original I'd recommend it just for that.

Attension span so short you couldn't even make it to the second half of the sentence before dismissing it

I think this comment is unnecessarily harsh.

To anyone confused (like me), the commenters above had opposite recommendations despite having similar opinions of the book.
