The Courage to Be Disliked: How to Free Yourself, Change Your Life, and Achieve Real Happiness by Fumitake Koga, Ichiro Kishimi
informative
reflective
slow-paced
2.5
Unfortunately, the content and style of this book were not for me.
I should have DNF'ed it a long time ago, but I was listening to the audio book on my walks and didn't think much about it. I'm not super into "self help" type books, but even so the format of the content and the repetitive, slow nature of the cadence made it really hard to enjoy. The conversations between the philosopher and the young student felt super forced, and the student was pretty annoying haha.
Overall, I think the message of this book could have been condensed to about 100 pages at most. Most everything felt like fluff.
