This book made its entry to my pantheon of favorite books. After years of hearing about it, I finally took some time to read it and I was absolutely taken by it. Sadie, Sam & Marx story was a beautiful tale from start to finish, this book made me smile, laugh and cry, my gosh it has been so many years a book didn't make me cry like this. It absolutely deserves all the praises and it's a absolute must read.
Why wouldn’t you tell someone you loved them? Once you loved someone, you repeated it until they were tired of hearing it. You said it until it ceased to have meaning. Why not? Of course, you goddamn did

An interesting encounter between Stoicism and modern work environment. Lots to unpack but it finally goes beyond the "just let things don't reach you" and feels for "human" than a lot of the advices based on the Stoics.

J'avoue avoir un peu de mal avec les dernières productions de Philippe Besson, après l'avoir adoré pendant de nombreuses années. Celle ci me semble obéir aux mêmes défauts que les dernières: un faits d'hiver, de l'émotion adolescente, de belles phrases. Une construction du récit qui devient assez classique pour l'auteur. Reste un roman qui se lit rapidement mais s'oubliera à mon avis tout aussi vite.
"Vous savez, vous, pourquoi il faut que les belles histoires finissent mal ?"

Got recommended this book by another UX Professional. I must admit I was a bit reluctant as a lot of the "methods" to read people are quite flimsy, but this book does a good job of aggregating them and explain that we shouldn't base our assumptions without a good baseline and several evidences pointing at the same direction.
I was a bit deceived by the last chapters focused a lot on the MBTI which is really not that great at all (https://www.vox.com/2014/7/15/5881947/myers-briggs-personality-test-meaningless). Having ADHD it also bothers me a lot that several physical manifestations of it could be badly identified for people not used to neuro atypic profiles.
