So I finally read this, and I loved it. :)

The way it was written drew me in,and the "historical" significance and Jonestown feel won me over. Anyone else read this?

I hated this book so much that I greatly enjoyed hating it. I talked about it with a co-worker months ago, and he agreed that the book is awkwardly ham-fisted in getting its point across.

The book in general was an interesting idea, but the ending just killed it for me.

I like open endings :D
It's one of those books you either really like, or hate.
