What Now? by Ann Patchett

4.0

This short book is based on a graduation address that Patchett gave at Sarah Lawrence College. It’s delightful and worth reading or listening to anytime. It’s a good idea to stop and reflect, to ask What Now? at many times in our lives, especially at times of transition. Patchett's advice is hopeful and inspiring, with a lot of good quotes, thoughts to ponder and remember. Here’s just one: "Sometimes the circumstances at hand force us to be braver than we actually are, and so we knock on doors and ask for assistance. Sometimes not having any idea where we're going works out better than we could possibly have imagined."

I see this slim book is $14.99 on Kindle. That's too much. The audio is very good, probably cheaper. I borrowed it from the library.
