Not what I expected, but still interesting ...
This book wasn't as straight-forward as I'd expected in the way it presents the opportunity to get to know "the Real You". Admittedly, I hadn't seen it in person or been able to flip through it beforehand. I guess I'd imaged a book filled with tests or questionnaires.
And, yes, I 'm that oddball who loves being in school and actually looks forward to tests: Be they academic tests or something as simple as blood tests (lol). What you truly wind up getting here is a book that is thoughtfully broken down into various categories. Then you're presented with a discussion of each.
There's some self reflection involved, but this is not - I repeat - not a book of self tests, self surveys, etc. Yet it is informative and interesting!
