Minimalism: Live a Meaningful Life by Ryan Nicodemus, Joshua Fields Millburn
2.0
Two stars
I loved their documentary on Netflix, and that's what led me to this book. Although the concept was interesting and is a subject close to my heart, I feel like it could have been written better with less redundancy and more oomph. It could have been presented with less emphasis on the personal experience of the authors, and more emphasis on the process (without having to refer the readers too frequently back to the website of the authors). The "five values" felt too vague and too abstract, and this book failed to do what most great books do. It failed to change your life.
