This again is another beautiful book by Dante. I believe one of my friends summed it up very well when she said that she felt that it was so complicated that she felt very frustrated when she read because she felt that she wasn't getting as much out of it as she should be. Paradise is very dense and I still don't understand it fully and part of me doubts I ever will even though the farther we get into the lectures the more I begin to understand the who Divine Comedy. Many of the lectures stress the fact that you can spend your whole life studying the Divine Comedy and still not fully comprehend its complexity so I feel alright about not being able to understand everything as well as I feel I should.
I would give Paradise 6 out of 10. I did like it but it wasn't as good as the other books in the Divine Comedy. I still believe that everyone should own and read it.
