marked my life

this book has really impressed me when I first read it in my 20s. I will definitely hand it to my daughter when she is old enough. In my opinion, all of this should be taught at school.

Convoluted and pointless

Unlistenable! The Author must believe she is clever with her made up words, silly descriptions and pointless banter. The Narrator sounds like an airhead compounding the problem further. I would rather listen to chalkboard screech.

I should have known when preface was about doing damage control for all the inaccuracies on the book.
