This was your typical rockstar romance, with great narration. Nothing about it wowed me…but nothing upset me, either.

A concept reminiscent of existential therapy; death, meaning, isolation, and freedom, with prose that dives between the dissonance of reality and unreality and that heady sense that the past is the future, Klune explores the philosophical/scientific debate of nature vs. nurture with an evocative twist, thus inbuing the story in subtext; memory, introspection, testimony, and reason while balancing the social benefits of knowledge vs. autonomy.

Nothing wrong with these lessons, but for me they felt kind of intuitive. There was something old fashioned and even comforting about the advice that I did enjoy. It reminded me of the classes my father took for his company in the 80‘s. Dad is highly effective, so maybe it worked. 🤷🏻‍♀️

My dad wasn't much of a reader, but he was a fan of Stephen Covey's 7 Habits book, and I still think about both it and him when I'm working, even if it couldn't be further from my reading preferences. The odd thing is, I have all these bookish memories linked to him: 1) him wanting to buy me this expensive book when I was a kid but making sure I would read it (I never did), 2) me taking John Dean's memoir from his shelf 👇

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!
