Simple language, easy to read. It was a self help book int he form of a novel. It focuses on the place regrets have in our lives and moving past them. My takeaway:
Each decision in our life shapes how our life will be. And others too. And there will always be a feeling of regret over a few things because you could've taken another decision instead, and it's easy to build up a life of possibilities you missed. But if you remember that decisions shape your life, and remember to stand by your decisions by being okay with taking the wrong one, it makes your life better. It makes it easier to live. It makes you happy to be you instead of a version which other people want you to be.

This is the perfect bedside book.
