I picked up this book because of NYC elective class. Yes NYC class. Although i dislike the class because of many reasons i found that this guess speaker is really interesting.

For the most part I really enjoyed this book. Its a good choice if you want a quick read. Squat has a lot of good quotes in it as well, and I think that it has a good moral to the story. When I began reading this book I didnt expect much if any religion to be invoved, but it actually became like the moral of the story. But overall Field did a great job with this book, and I look forward to his other works, if he has any!

I got the book from Pastor Field when he visited my NYC Elective Class. I read the book and enjoyed the character and their view on life and their experiences.
My favorite character is Unc, who is a homeless philosopher that drinks and reads works of poetry. His view point is sad, but realistic.
Wonderful book and the map in the beginning of the book really helped me picture the setting.
