Tired as F*ck: Burnout at the Hands of Diet, Self-Help, and Hustle Culture by Caroline Dooner

2.0

Did not finish. Like other readers, I was expecting a more comprehensive, scientific and holistic look at burnout culture but we got a memoir instead. While I do acknowledge the author's struggles with her teeth and her problems with burnout culture, I wish we could have ventured out of her circle of experiences. She talks endlessly about her own experience with tiredness, failing to live up to society's expectations etc. But this narrows the scope of the book way too much for me to justify continuing to read. Been sitting in my Kobo for about five weeks and I'm still only halfway through because I couldn't really push myself to slog through more of her prose.
