I loved this story!  Linus Baker has spent his life maintaining his routine and following the RULES AND REGULATIONS text provided by his employer.  He is sent on a classified work assignment that flips everything he thought he believed upside down.  This book challenges the American work ethic while providing some thought provoking ideas on better work/life balance for a more fulfilling life.  I appreciated the diverse characters and relationships.  This is a great read, moderately paced, and I highly recommend it!
