travelight8 's review for:

The Road to Character by David Brooks
3.0

This book was both horrible and wonderful. It was not a typical mediocre three star book, parts of it were five stars, others one. I both loved and hated it.

Ultimately I don't think the author achieved his aim. He was looking to uncover the path to, and achievement of, genuine moral character, but, like many of the people he wrote about, doesn't seem to have quite found it.
