As Hannah Montana says, life is what you make it. This book is, and presents itself, as a stepping stone for how you want to make your life. There are a lot of preliminary ideas about ways to live a life based on popular philosophy theories with no real conclusions drawn from them. Some sections are better than others and I wish I had the opportunity to just be able to sit with the book and read it in one sitting. It's kind of rough to pick up and put down and I found myself re-reading a ton of sections to recall the concepts being evaluated. But it's not that bad and does serve as an excellent stepping stone for the pursuit of the Question (what is the meaning of life) which will likely never be answered but a good life can still be lived while in pursuit of it and this book encourages that mindset very well.
