4) haircut

5) cats lounging on my unmade bed, best excuse not having to make it 😉

Thank you for the goodies! Especially the bookmark just when I‘m looking for one! The note is sweet as well. ❤️

This book is insufferable. I‘m 14% of the way in and cannot listen another minute. This man needs to check his biases. All fat people are slothful and gluttonous. Diabetics never do what he tells them, so they never get better. The loss of bookstores are proof of Americans‘ unhappiness. Depression is because of a history of “chronic, excessive reward.”

1) I mostly read sitting in my recliner or on my porch. I do read lying down every night before falling asleep, but usually have to reread those pages!! 📃 😴

2) I just started this one and already love the quirky fmc, Isadora 💛

Nope. When I go into a book knowing there's a semi-absurd premise, something where you're going to work extra hard to suspend disbelief and not think too hard about the details, I'm looking for the result to be charming or meaningful. I feel like this book didn't manage either.
Started out thinking it could have been a novella, now convinced that amount of plot and original rumination minus the redundancies would have fit in a short story. 1/?

The author traveled to every country in the world & this memoir is about creating your own quest & completing it. While I think he comes from a place of privilege to be able to encourage people to drop everything and follow their dreams, some of his tips were helpful. I love tangible goals, like visit all 50 states & read all Shakespeare‘s plays.

“The more prepared you are, more spontaneous you can be.”

“A measurable goal is a good companion.”
