The Year of Less: How I Stopped Shopping, Gave Away My Belongings, and Discovered Life Is Worth More Than Anything You Can Buy in a Store by Cait Flanders

informative fast-paced

3.0

I was reading this partially because it was available from the library and partially because I'm embarking on my own no-spend year and thought this might offer suggestions and advice. I felt that Cait did offer some very reasonable suggestions, but she also came across kind of condescendingly? Maybe that's because some of what she wrote was challenging to read as it reflected aptly to my situation, but other things (like her relationship with food) were treated unnecessarily callous and laced with diet culture and eating disordered behavior.
