Could be the last book I finish before the end of 2016 and I think as the year closes it was a very important one to read. The message is simple, learn how to not care and it is vital to each and every person. I see people stress at work because they can't restrict themselves from getting too involved, sometimes things are just out of our hands so you need to know what to care about and what not. I found the values section incredible important, it is one thing I lack and when you really think ab
...out it, things begin to take shape. I thought I was quite good at not giving a crap but reading this I learnt I was deeply shut off, I needed to care more about the things that do interest me and less on the things that don't. The book loses a little steam in the last chapter and lost me but when I found myself quoting a specific value message to another friend I realised this book is beneficial to not just me. The message is true and amazing, the book doesn't attempt to confuse with earth shattering opinions by philosophical morons, it just questions our life with technology and how we perceive our lives. Manson has interesting stories and losing a friend at a young age is something that shaped my life as well. Don't just read for the sake of reading, get something out of it and pay it forward. Great book.
