Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m not sure what I expected. Maybe something more like Susan Cain‘s Quiet? I hate to bail on books but I need engaging books to meet my 2020 Goodreads challenge. Tick tock!! ⏰

The Buddhist author writes short essays tied to the idea of solitude (at least in his mind). He writes about his experiences with peyote & ayahuasca, Montaigne's essays, meditation, and writing. The short essays make for quick reading. The impact may have been stronger by keeping topics together. Still worthwhile and occasionally thought-provoking.

I received an advanced copy through Netgalley. The book is due to be released February 18, 2020.]
