The Zen Commandments: Ten Suggestions for a Life of Inner Freedom | 
so-soThis book sounded so interesting! It's been lingering on my TBR stack and I finally got to it. The Zen commandments should compliment the 10 commandments, powerful nudges toward the light is how it's described. Tied into meditation techniques. While this sounded great in theory, it lost something in the execution for me. Overly wordy and a bit meandering. I enjoyed some of the stories but found myself zoning out as each (cont in comments)
TheHeartlandBookFairy chapter began its meanderings. The idea was to Zen out, not zone out. Maybe bullet points would have been a better format for the essential information to hold my attention after the initial story in each chapter? Maybe it just wasn't the right time to read it? There were some noteworthy and quoteworthy moments and passages in this book (for me) but overall but overall it was just a so so read. 3y
