A Canticle for Leibowitz

I found Canticle kinda "meh" personally. It was a great premise, and the 1st third was somewhat interesting, but the rest fell flat for me. I'd say it was a book I wanted to like a lot, but the execution let me down.

I loved it, but I think I know what you mean. I feel like there's a lot of unrealized potential.
