I literally dnf'ed it. Never thought I'd do that to a book but it was literally so hard to get into it. Maybe in the way it was outlined. I love dystopian fantasy but this just wasn't for me

Woah , where do I begin... This is the first self-help book I read all the way through because it's pretty and very easy to follow. Everything subtopic had examples that one can easily follow but I do think it lacked depth in most cases it had a million chances to be more detailed but missed. I can only judge it based on how I felt and not comparing it to other self help books because I almost always dnf'ed them. Even after me thinking it's a good book, still wasn't sold on reading anymore of not only John Sanei's books but just self help books in general.

Do feel like the first 17 chapters could have easily been suppressed into two chapters, it was a lot of fluff , nothing substantial. The only substantial information could have been 2 chapters. From chapter 18 everything went as expected, Jenny is a good writer and the chapters after solidified that for me ,especially given the fact that this was her first book. But again the 3 star
