I DNF'd this book 10% of the way through.

I was so excited to pick up this book when I read the premise but I could tell it wasn't going to meet my expectations. In the 10% that I listened to, this book was a lot more woowoo that I anticipated, as I was expecting this to be more of a factual account. The testimonial type stories were very hard to believe and made me distrustful of the entire narrative. Sensing it wasn't going to get better, I came to goodreads which only cemented my thoughts and made me realise this could be a potential 1-2 stars for me. I would still like something on this topic ... but not this.
