Adventures in Opting Out: A Field Guide to Leading an Intentional Life by Cait Flanders
3.0
I definitely enjoyed reading this book and found it comforting as someone who has often chosen the less trodden path. Her encouragement and her own story very much resonates with me.
I loved “The Year of Less” and am actually doing “no buy” February right now inspired by her year of less. I will say I felt the metaphor pretty tired in this book. I enjoy hiking and love to travel but at points the metaphor did seem somewhat forced. She is a good writer but it’s hard to do something cliche well and I’m not sure she fully succeeded here.
Overall I recommend this book if you love her other books and are interested in alternative ways of living.
