I was hoping for something akin to The Little Book of Hygge but it just read like a very long personal blog post. The title suggests a year of living without buying things but the author kept skipping around her own timeline which left me confused. I felt more like I was getting more build up to the ‘Year‘ than experiences from the ‘Year‘ itself. Crunch point came when she went into detail about a breakup and I realised I just didn‘t care.
