[Deja · Rating 4 out of 5]

Knjiga je uistinu skup eseja koji u stvari prate neku osnovnu nit, nisu onako raštrkani bez smisla i reda. Većinu stvari koje autorica navodi većina nas u sebi to već zna, ali nam često trebaju poticaji izvana da te neke problematične strane nas samih preispitamo i počnemo raditi na njihovoj promjeni. Meni osobno je najviše odgovaralo poglavlje-esej "U fokusu".
