How Not To Be a Boy

I loved it. I hated how much I loved it. I really struggled with this book - and yes before you ask that IS because I too am a product of ‘The Trick' (when you know you know).

On my quest to become a better man, I feel really lucky to have stumbled on this, which seemed to say to me ‘it's okay mate, I get it' the whole time (even when I was denying the similarities and getting angry at Webb himself).

It was also intensely powerful for me to read someone sharing their failures, and their mistakes so openly and (would you believe) in an incredibly non-self-loathing way. As someone who sits very deeply into the self-loathe, this was reassuring of the idea that equanimity does in fact exist, mistakes that are choking me in the present will free me in the future.
