How Should a Person Be? by Sheila Heti

3.0

This is a hard one. So much of the book is fearless, and it asks some of the most important questions. But it is frustrating and precious and ...just not the way I think. Hate-reading is the only way I got through parts of it. (If you've read it, you can probably guess the parts.) So I'm judging it poorly for asking all the questions I think are important but asking them "badly," in a different process than I would/did use, and coming up with different answers than I would. Not proud, but I'm docking stars for this one. If we talked about this book in person, I'd probably be rude about it and roll my eyes, so there you go.
