Hi QuaChee,

I’m glad that you like this book, though I can’t say the same for myself! It was an insightful read all the same.

Oh, I did kind of hear about his first book being a flop and all. Well, he need not worry now that his books are already bestsellers and probably inspiring people to turn over a new leaf. =)

Thanks for your comment and thanks for dropping by. Do come by more often! =D

Hi

I like the book quite a lot actually. I think and I agree with what you guys mentioned that maybe there was too much hype.

Cos for me I didn’t really knew it was a big book until I read it.

It just blew my mind off. He’s a good writer to inspire others through story telling. Though his following books which were of a similar background got a lil more boring. Nevertheless, I think he did a good job - do you know his first book was a ‘flop’, but somehow this sold so well. Cool heh.

Heya btw, like yr blog & outlay. Beautiful. Keep reading

Alice: =D Yeah, this book gain a lot of attention and I didn’t know what all the fuss was about. And you said it right, it’s not the best book around and yet it’s not so bad.

I think the hype sort of ‘killed’ the book. I did finish it in one sitting — very easy to read. Like you’ve mentioned, there’s some thought-provoking stuff in there. I wrote a little review of the book too. It’s not the best book but it’s not bad either.

Denise: You’re right! Such simple language and yet there’s a deeper meaning to it all. True, it can be inspirational.

Anu: Hi, I’m glad to hear that it’s one of your fav. books. I might read it one more time to understand it better.

nylusmilk: Now that you said it, it is pretty overhyped! It’s because of the story itself and the messages it conveys. People like books that help them become better people!

zeek: Haha! That’s interesting. Guess you had to bear with them while reading.

Although I liked it, I did find the not so subtle metaphors a tad annoying. But, in the end, it’s a good book, despite it’s exulted self-importance, ya know?

this book is pretty good, but i was slightly disappointed because i expected more due to the hype surrounding it. still, something that makes you reevaluate your life in a better way can’t be bad!

Good review. I enjoyed reading this book. I think it’s one of those books that u need to read twice or thrice to really grasp the meaning and lessons in it. It will always be one of my favourite books…that I am sure…

I agree, the book is quite deep and thought-provoking, and I did stop reading it and later on re-read it to finish it. The language is simple but it demands some amount attention, or else the meanings are lost. Very inspirational!
