I really love the concept of this book; however, I think it would be much better as a short story. It feels very repetitive, even though situations are different each time. The repetition made it drag on. 

It does read fairly quickly. The short chapters are really nice!

Kind of A Christmas Carol meets a depressed 30 year old English woman. I did find parts of it difficult to get through but I also sobbed at certain sections so overall a good book.

I understand why this book is popular, but it just wasn't for me. The writing sometimes waxed poetic in a way that felt forced to me. I knew how it would end within the first few pages. The overall message is important, but I couldn't connect with the main character and well, this book is all about her.

Great book to pick up if you have ever felt like you have lost your way in life or struggling with any regrets. Each chapter is short so easy to pick and put down if you have a lower attention span. Inspiring story and makes you reflect on life and your choices.
