@Wendy it’s a wonderfully written book, the characters are completely relatable and there are so many life pondering questions posed thought the book. Also laugh out loud funny parts which I personally love
The funny part is good to know. I need to move it up on my TBR pile.
@Wendy I def recommend it! It made me really thing about a lot of different things

The China Study by T Colin Campbell changed my diet for the better 9 years ago. Spark by John Ratey has helped me prioritize exercise. The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg helped me understand how to form better habits. Reading fiction has changed my thinking about people but I can’t say any one book really stands out, there are so many good ones I can’t pick one or two
Loved Duhigg!

Brand New World, Siddhartha and The Meaning of Life
The Bible
When I was a young teenager, the White Oleander book helped me through a lot of my struggles at that time. I would carry it around with me everywhere, reading it time and time again. I even made a collage over the cover of the book only because (that book became such a personal item to me) that I didn’t want anyone judging me or making assumptions about me by what I was reading. It was an emotional time in my life.
