I suppose there are those who will feel this book is trite, easy or "feel-good". And it is a couple of those things. It is an easy book to read--a nice and fairly short story. And it is somewhat feel good, although I'm sure many readers felt a few pangs here and there as they recognized themselves on the page.

However, as with most books that are about who we are, individually and fundamentally, the challenge is the practice.

My recommendation is read the book and decide if it has value for you. And if it does read it again more slowly and actually take the journey along with Joe. It will be interesting to see what comes of it.
