My thoughts:
The book is about 5 questions that bother the human kind. Is an impressive and intriguing read. Some over the top questions are dealt in this book and the author has put up his point of view. The content is really impactful and leaves u thinking about the same.
The book is a great choice for people who like self-help books. Those looking for a direction and purpose in life and for the personal development enthusiast.
The writer has done a great job in expressing his views and delivering them beautifully. I’m not very much into self-help books but this one made me think about a lot of things. Trial and error are two sides of a coin when one reads self-help books. Overall this is a great book to uplift your spirits and personal development.
Writing style:
The writing is written in a very understanding way and in an easy to read way. The content has been portrayed well and the narration too is beautifully written and up to the mark.
