Design Your Day: Be More Productive, Set Better Goals, and Live Life on Purpose by Claire Diaz-Ortiz
1.0
Gah! That was not worth my time! Most ideas in this are copied form other books and just re-summarized. At least the author gives credit often is the one thing I can give. Honestly I felt like I was reading a long ramble on mainstreaming life goals and ideas. There are a couple decent ideas, but not original. I didn't get anything new out of this. Just a "been there, read that." Several of the ideas you have to live a certain lifestyle to qualify. And no, I could not think of a way to apply it to my life.
Now the real reason I rated it so low: The grammar and spelling was atrocious! Now I must admit I was reading a review copy so I could over look the terrible formatting (like how the first word of every paragraph had a space in the middle of it) and hope they would be fixed but the sheer amount of basic errors baffled me. If this was a paper turned in to any English teach I ever had in Middle or High School I would have received an F. When it is that bad, it should not be submitted as a review copy even. So it was very frustrating to get through. A final copy might have earned 2 starts but the formatting would have to be amazing and grammar near perfect even still. This whole book just rambled like a bad blog entry. Maybe if I keep going on this rant, you will get the idea...
1.5 stars
