Thrive: The Third Metric to Redefining Success and Creating a Life of Well-Being, Wisdom, and Wonder by Arianna Huffington

2.0

I chose this book at the library, because I was feeling particularly burnt out towards the end of the school year. Prior to this, I did not know that much about Ariana Huffington's personal life, I don't even read the Huffington Post that much at all. However, I got the sense that this book is composed of a million different Huffington blog posts on health and service. It is VERY repetitive.

I enjoyed the stories about her mother, who truly seemed to be a remarkable woman. In her descriptions of her mother's life and death, there is sense of authenticity and vulnerability, not found anywhere else in the book.

The rest of it is preachy and at times ridiculous.
