Bookwormjillk Danny 🤣🤣🤣 7mo

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk I just can‘t 🤣 I can‘t imagine her with any nickname at all ☠️ 7mo

dabbe At least there's a little respite for our narrator who feels more like herself with Maxim away. She doesn't have to pretend to be someone she isn't and can just be herself--for a little while. 7mo

ElizaMarie So much mystery in this chapter!!!! I'm super intrigued! 7mo

Clare-Dragonfly I think it was Mrs. Danvers in the cabin threatening Ben!!! Rebecca would have no reason to keep her cabin activities a secret, and would probably think Ben is beneath her. Mrs. Danvers fits the description better and is definitely acting fishy. 7mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly ohhhhh that‘s a really good theory and I could totally see Danvers doing that! 7mo

Bookwormjillk Jan is really reminding me of a person at work who decides that each time she has a scheduled check in with our shared supervisor she‘s going to get fired then when I tell her she‘s not she gets mad when she‘s not promoted. The stories she tells herself in her head. Cool it Jan. Max isn‘t dead just because he went to London. #DontBelieveEverythingYouThink 7mo

TheAromaofBooks @Bookwormjillk - Seriously! I was reading that section like COOL YOUR JETS, my word! 7mo

kwmg40 Jan really has an overactive imagination! 7mo

julieclair @kwmg40 Yes, and that imagination is not doing her any favors. 7mo

Don't Believe Everything You Think: Why Your Thinking Is The Beginning & End Of Suffering | Joseph Nguyen

so-so

This was dead in the middle of the road for me. 2.5 stars.

I have mixed feelings about this book. It was really short and didn‘t go into as much detail as I would have liked, in places. The first half was strong and what I expected from the title. The first half supported his thesis. The second half did not; in fact, it sort of disproved it (at least for me). 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics About 1/2 to 2/3 through the book, Nguyen suddenly started referring to god A LOT and talked about “divine downloads.” This was very distracting to me. I get where he was going with the divine download thing, but it just came off weird. The god thing just unsettled me. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 9mo

GingerAntics There was also this random moment of diet advice that did not have any backing other than common practice as opposed to supportable science. It was out of place and just not needed. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 9mo

GingerAntics He used “nonthinking” instead of mindfulness or being present. It got really weird when he talking about nonthinking being the the same thing as a flow mental state. It was kind of weird and not exactly accurate, especially for someone who tends to go into mental flow when studying, doing research, and writing academic papers. 9mo

Texreader As always thanks for an honest review! 9mo

GingerAntics @Texreader I was just so hoping for something… different I guess. The first part was in line with what I was expecting, then all of a sudden it took this turn and it was very jarring. I mean, I have to give him credit for referring to god as her. Maybe it was me. 9mo
