Not really my kind of book, although I did learn about the Buddhist religion. I read this for a challenge on Goodreads.

2018 - Reread. This composed of many essays by different authors. Cool to see my notes from 12 years ago though! Most chapters felt a bit basic, but 2 I liked A LOT. Difficult to choose a star rating, but as a whole it didn't impress round 2. 2018 Book Riot's Read Harder Challenge - An assigned book you hated (or never finished)

2011 - I read this book 5 years ago, remember it boring me then and can hardly remember it now. Perhaps something to give another try.
