I found this book to be actually quite annoying. Anyone who thinks that there downfall in life is being who they are, even if that is smart, is seriously messed up. Even if this was written as a way to show you that being yourself is the best thing in life, I thought it did a poor job of saying it. Its end message was masked and you were still confused from the rest of the book at that point. I just didn't enjoy this book that much.
