I quit about 3/4 through. I'm sure there is a lot of stuff in this book that helps people, but I just couldn't get into it

Obviamente no los datos y anécdotas pero toda la parte de reflexión que hay en este libro es algo a lo que puedes llegar fácilmente si has dedicado media hora a pensar en formas de estar en el mundo, no se puede estar en contra de lo que dice tampoco porque es blanquísimo, piensas que va a mojarse en algún momento desde la página 80 o así pero se queda paseando por el borde de la piscina sin tirarse. Triste porque le tenía ganas :/
Something I care about deeply, but not my cup of tea writing-style-wise. Got me to consider my total ignorance of plant/animal identification though!
Glad the author states up front that the book is essentially a long essay and more of an advocacy book than a guidebook, which is not what I was looking for

This was not what I expected. It was far more cerebral and intellectual, which I may have enjoyed more had I been prepared. As it was, I was anticipating more scientific and actionable insights on our reduced attention span, how to focus on one thing at a time and not multi-task, etc. Instead, Odell ties may different academic subject areas to criticize the attention economy, capitalism, the rupture between selves and bioregionalism (don't ask me what this is, I still don't know), and social media in general? I guess I'm confused how the summary says that this delivers an action plan when in reality I'm still just trying to figure out what the argument was.
