Pickpick

explores what the self is and what it isnt. Baggini is a philosopher who wrote his PhD on personal identity and has written this related book. The book explores how a curious chunk of matter can house a self, how self changes over time and the nature of our own view of ourselves.

I've smashed through loads of reading this weekend, but I've just realised I started The Bell Jar in 2016 and never got around to finishing it. So today I'm attempting to get back into it. Next up will also be The Ego Trick which I think I bought in 2016...clearly 2016 was a bad reading year! 🤔
