stagasaurus 's review for:

The More of Less by Joshua Becker
4.0

I think this was a good look into minimalism. I've always said that I'll never be one but Becker definitely put together a good argument for it.

It also made me realise I do have some tendencies that are minimalist already, which I never would have believed. Like only buying shampoo when I only have one left, because one day I realised you only ever need two bottles of shampoo and owning more is just a waste of space.

The bit I liked most was about being able to give more. I see a lot of minimalist blogs that seem self-absorbed, so I liked that the writer looks at what others can gain not just what he will gain.

I liked that the writer read it out himself. That helps me when reading non-fiction.

I'm not an atheist but the religious stuff made me feel the book wasn't really aimed at me. I think it would be better to leave it out or market it specifically for Christians.
