Spoiler: this book (literally) smacked me in the head
You know, this book could have been amazing if it was marketed correctly. I don't know what I was expecting and, as it tells you not to proceed unless you have completed the activities, I was ready to be surprised. But this is everything but a book you need to complete. It's a guide to exploring nature at best. Which is not a bad thing... but not what I was promised.
I was going to give it three stars, then remembered that it quite literally physically hurt me. When I was still trying to do the activities, it suggested to do everyday activites with your eyes closed. I was like, why not? I went to get a sweater in the closet, I reached out with my hands and figured that the closet door was closed. It wasn't, I just had one arm one each side of it. I walked straight into it and banged by head. Is it my fault? Yes, but imagine telling people why I had this massive bruise on my forehead.
