amieco's review against another edition
It was an interesting read so far and ignited some much needed thoughts, but all in all it was a bit too academic for my taste and there were so many redundancies that it started to bore me.

Liked hearing about her dad who at 30 took two years off to "ride his bike" and "see friends"
yvejr's review against another edition
I tried many times to read this book and couldn’t get into the first chapter. Nor when skimming did anything pull me in. Finally I tried an audio book format; I did not like it at all! This book is part memoir and part critique, written like a research paper. Very dry and comes off as pretentious. I feel harsh saying so but I really did give it a good try over the course of 2 years before officially giving up. I think the message is probably good and I have no doubt a lot of quality research and work went into this book - but I can’t handle the writing style.
