How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question by Michael Schur
challenging
informative
inspiring
medium-paced
3.5
I enjoyed this book a lot. But other than nerds like me who have the exact same sense of humor as Mike Schur and want a refresher on college philosophy courses, I’m not sure who this is for. It was incredibly refreshing to hear some legitimate discussions of moral philosophy that didn’t fall back into the racism, misogyny and ableism that many people just shrug off when teaching Aristotle, Kant, etc.. My biggest take away from this book — aside from “know thusepf and nothing in excess,” which are great rules to live by — is that I want to be best friends with Mike Schur. But then again, I already knew that. Time to rewatch the Good Place, I guess!
