It was a little bit of a hard read - in the sense that I have a lot of homework to do but not everything in this book is applicable to me.

Love this installment, but I still think Heir of Fire is better.

I originally saw the TedTalk around 5 or 6 years ago, then I was gifted the book a couple years ago and finally got around to reading it.

I think it’s a really good book.
