Laugh out loud funny but also poignant, particularly related to dealing with depression. Brosh's illustrations alone crack me up.
This is honestly one of the best books I have read in years. Haidt makes very convincing arguments for his three main points: 1) intuitions comes first, strategic reason second, 2) there is more to morality than harm and fairness and 3) morality binds and blinds. His writing style is very clear and accessible although I paused several times during the book just to explore some of the many ideas he presents. This book really opened my eyes.
This young adult steampunk is silly, clever and overall just a lot of fun. If you appreciate Victorian manners, fisticuffs, mechanical sausage dogs and an evil genius training school with levels including “discourteous” and “spiteful” this is the series for you.
I thought the stories were moving and interesting. The author said his goal was to discuss experiences people have shortly before they die and provide hope. I think he succeeded but I would have like to hear more stories from different cultures to see if these experiences of seeing the deceased, going on trips or crowded rooms are familiar independent of culture.
