The Ethics of Ambiguity by Simone de Beauvoir

4.0

Much more readable than Sartre's "Being and Nothingness," which is the essential book about existentialist philosophy. I don't exactly consider myself an existentialist, but there are quite a few concepts that I can relate to. "The Ethics of Ambiguity" for the most part seems to expand on and support many of Sartre's concepts. I like this novel a lot more, the writing is smoother and less bland and repetitive as Sartre's text and keeps things concise as opposed to Sartre's wordy descriptions. Anyone interested in philosophy or existentialism specifically should check out this book. Or even people who like relatable things that provoke thought about even everyday things.
