Creo que este libro llevaba como 3 años en mi librero 🤣🤣🤣 sumamos otro más completado para sacarlo de mi lista de libros sin leer de mi librero.

Ahora mis impresiones 👇🏻
La premisa es bien interesante, el hecho de tener una librería llena de tus vidas paralelas y que podas vivirlas. Me gusta que después de cada vida hubo una lección y que se hiciera una reflexión. 

Una frase que me gustó un montón es:
"You don't have to understand life, you have to live it." No tienes que entender la vida, solo tienes que vivirla. A veces es así de sencillo, asumo yo. 

Este es un buen libro si se está buscando algo sencillo en que reflexionar. 👍🏻🤔😄
