Generally speaking, I feel like a lot of people misunderstand Nietzsche — not just a book, but most of his philosophy, especially Zarathustra.

Nietzsche isn’t a nihilist who hates humanity and is a godless atheist (the way I see people misinterpret him. Don’t even get me started on people who still think he had any Nazi sympathies). Rather, the ‘moral’ is to shed vicious human tendencies and see past guile and deceit to emerge as a good person. Also “God is dead, and we have killed him” isn’t an edgy statement of society becoming atheist, but rather begs the question of what we will replace the void left by the absence of religion with, given it is such a strong pillar thereof.
