I could see this being a great book for some as a starting point to ethics but it just wasn't my cup of tea. I did wonder if I would have liked this better on audio so it felt more like a discussion rather than wading through the extra fluff that was humorous but got old after a bit.

I don't agree with many of the arguments made by Schur in his often amusing perspectives of philosophy, but his explanations of the theories and their detractions are excellent. I recommend this book very much, but please don't satisfy the gods of luck through Vegas, instead put that same money you would have spent to account for your privilege into helping those without it.

Sort of like philosophy for dummies. Which as someone who struggles with grasping anything theoretical, I very much appreciated. Also provide a bit of insight on the Good Place.

This came up as something I might like because I liked "The Good Place". I liked the show more than this book but the book was still interesting. Probably the easiest philosophy book I've ever read so if you want to dip your toe into the pool of moral philosophy this is a good place to start.
