Full: The Emptiness Of Overeating by Paul Dermody

As with a lot of self-help books, I read this but I feel like I haven't taken anything in. Maybe I just wasn't in the right mindset for it, maybe I was rushing it a bit (I'm trying to read as many KU books as I can before cancelling my subscription at the end of the month). Almost every sentence felt like a platitude. I say that I haven't taken anything in, but actually, I think I did grasp that the overall message was more about discovering and following your values, rather than chasing goals. And I did like the quote "say yes happily, or say no, but don't say yes begrudgingly". That's very similar to "if it's not a 'hell yeah' it's a no".
