It was good at times, mediocre some other times, repetitive some other times, and mainly I've lost interest real fast, so even though it was great reading about someone who went to live with and see what's life about with cannibals and whatnot, it got old real fast and the time that's been written shows. 

Don't get me wrong, you might like it even more, it wasn't much on my taste for what I was expecting, and to be honest it's not a classic in my opinion.
