2.5 (but would rate higher if I deified the armed forces). Despite being from the US, I don’t fetishize the military. I found that without that context, the anecdotes and scenarios used in the book seem turgid and unrelatable. I appreciate a message to keep hope and not give up etc etc but I don’t really need that to come from stories of people’s legs being blown off in combat then keeping a sunny disposition. It honestly did more to make me (further) shy away from American military propaganda than to convert me to a gritty optimist.

Very quick read that I immensely enjoyed. None of the advice is going to blow your mind but it’s told with great stories.
