I was totally riveted listening to this. It’s fast-paced, engaging, and funny, and I think Pargin does a really good job of creating interesting conversations between characters with opposing worldviews. Ari Fliakos’s narration for the audiobook really helps pull you in, and he gives each character a very distinct voice that perfectly fits their personality.
Miscellaneous quotes:
The dream isn’t that the chance for an adventure will come along—you can do an adventure any time you want—but that circumstances will line up just right so that you simply have no more excuses.
It’s like a game… you have an enemy on your screen and you click on it, and the enemy’s reputation is blown to pieces.
And what I discovered was that so much of the self-help and wellness advice I was getting was entirely about solitude. Meditate, alone. Do yoga, alone. Work in your garden alone. Walk through the woods—alone. Like alone time is the one thing we’re all missing.
I’m saying we need to make peace. You’re saying, how can I make peace with an enemy? And I’m saying that’s the only time you can make peace.
