book_worm23 's review for:
The Art of Being Alone: Solitude Is My Home, Loneliness Was My Cage
by Renuka Gavrani
hopeful
informative
inspiring
reflective
medium-paced
This was a nice read and meditative read on how to be alone and the difference between loneliness and being alone.
Bear in mind some of the advice is a bit cliched and typical at times.
Towards the end though it becomes your typical self-help, set goals and make alone time “productive”. Some of the advice also about romanticising your life seemed derivative of Instagram and TikTok. I think also the fact that the author is young shows at times as her examples are reflective of someone in her 20s.
But the first half had some wisdom and there were some reflections that I found myself highlighting.
