The Comfort Book
by Matt Haig
This book is the living proof that you don't have to tell an actual story to move people or to make a point, to make sense or even to teach them something. This book is really about how you should build your life, from the ground up, bit by bit, learning something new every day from just experiencing life and add that to make it a tiny bit better.
It's full of stuff. Some you'll like and cherish and remember for the rest of your life, some will be just useless for you and you'll forget them in an instant. But in those pages you'll find a plethora of emotions, ideas, stories. You will question yourself and your life, find historical facts about other people, learn about an inspiring life of the author, see the universe through different perspectives. It just has it all for you to discover at your own pace, in your own way. It doesn't push you to read it, it invites you to.
It's genius stands in it's simplicity. Come as your are, open mind, open heart and open this book wherever you want and reflect on what you just read on that page. Then do it again and again. You'll see what I'm talking about.
Reading it, for me, felt like opening a wooden chest forgotten in the attic and finding treasures of all kind, of sentimental value, learning things about my past, seeing it through different perspectives and be hopeful for the future. I'm certain no one that read this book entirely is able to tell me that it didn't find anything of value within it's pages (or else they are lying).
The best incentive I could give you about this book is just randomly open the damn book and read it already haha.
