I read this book last year... Agree that at first it was an interesting read but towards the end, I got bored reading it. There were just too many lives she had to visit through the Midnight Library.
I love self-help books and I got a handful of lessons or shall I say, reminders from the book. After reading it, I had to scan through the years I've lived and found that there were moments I'd like to go back to and change those if given the chance. But ultimately, the best life is the life I'm living now. And that's the one I have control over.
Any book you can recommend? Despite my busy schedule, I try to finish at least one book a month.
I've read a lot of self-help books actually, around the ballpark of 30-40 and it appears to me that they all say the same with lots of words, things that could be said in a blog post. Not to mention, some of the things don't apply to most people anyway. Hence my disagreement with the genre.
Yeah, you're right about the one life we live. At least, this is the only life we are getting anyway, and trying to make the best of it is a no-brainer.
A book a month is a fine goal. What kind of books do you like?
Have you read Kafka's Metamorphosis? or, Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray?
