The Book of Awesome by Neil Pasricha

Non-Fiction

From the blogger of 1000awesomethings.com, comes this book that talks, ad nauseam, of things that are AWESOME! This book can be fun when you digest it in small chunks. As gross as this is going to sound, it would actually make a good bathroom book. Do your business, read a few awesome things, and go on your merry way. This isn't the way I read it though, and about half way through just skipped the descriptions of items I wasn't that interested in.

Some of these items have way more description than necessary. For example, 'When there's leftover cake in the office kitchen' has a three page description! What is there to describe about cake being left in the kitchen. Grab a fork and chow down, that's all you need!

There were some awesome things that you smile and agree with. Popping bubble wrap, a long hug when you really need it, and snow days. I'm surprised that finding a parking spot at the front of the mall isn't one... especially during Christmas that's always a favourite of mine!

If you do pick up this book, take your time with it.

First Line: "So what's this all about?"
