Existence: cultivating through enlightenment

And all that glitters is gold

this is a good book and i can tell you just started writing, im invested. .. looking forward to the next chapter

Only on chapter 12, so my review will likely only improve as I progress.Honestly kind of jealous of the characters, plot development and writing style. I went into it thinking happy things and having happy feelings despite the sad experiences, and that was crushed, so I mean, if you're into that sort of thing like I am, that's cool. I like how the side characters/siblings maintain purpose throughout the story (so far).I can't say that at any point I was terribly surprised by the aggressive turn-of-events, except in the beginning, that really threw me off. It does follow some pretty standard tropes where you go, "Alright, that person is going to do something fucked up" and then they do it. I have a few theories about who is going to die, but I'll keep that to myself for now. I don't read much, too busy with writing, but I'm averaging 6 chapters a day which is a lot for me when it comes to a traditional book and not audible or something I can listen to on the way to work. All in all, definitely worth a read, go ahead and give it a shot, maybe a few chapters in should be all you need. The further you go, the further you get drawn in, so reader beware.
