Good book. Gets you thinking.

Where does The Untethered Soul rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I don't listen to non-fiction very often, and I have never listened to a "motivational" or "self-help" book ever... so this was a new experience for me. It was just such a different experience that it's hard to do a comparison. I liked the book compared to other audiobooks I have listened to.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Untethered Soul?

Toward the end of the book, it goes into the idea that you might as well live like it was the last week of your life all the time, and I found myself saying, "You're so right" to myself in my car on the way home from work. Obviously it was a good moment in the book.

Which scene was your favorite?

It's non-fiction so there are not necessarily "scenes" per-se, but my favorite part was probably the beginning, when it was describing the "inner dialogue". I really connected to what the author was saying.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I actually needed a break throughout listening to this book, so it's good that my commute is only 40 minutes. There is a lot of abstract information in the book, so it's hard to process it all, at least at the pace that this narrator went at. Overall though, the pace was good for the tone of the book, so even though it was harder to really process all the information, the information was good, so I really actually liked the book. Even without necessarily agreeing with all the information in it, it still gets you thinking and makes you realize that being happy is easier than it seems. I have made some real strides with myself because of this book, so I can't say that the book is not worth listening to. It's definitely worth listening to.

Any additional comments?

It got a bit redundant, always telling you to, "just let it go," but that's the nature of how it says to approach happiness, so it makes sense that the "let it go" point was made throughout.

One of the deepest books I've read

This book was so deep that I didn't fully get it before the third read. I loved it every time, but its truth kept sinking in deeper and deeper over time.
