I thought it would be a book that focuses on how to lead a simple life in this buzzing world, just as the book title, but I am so wrong lol. It is a collection of short essays and the book title is one of it with only two pages. There are some that I am able to relate a lot and found the writing mesmerizing, but it tends to be a little repetitive at the end. It talks a lot about love and separation, and the feeling of self-guilt after a separation, which is totally different from what I thought the book would be. That's why it kinda ruins my experience. Overall, it is a good book to flip through for a short read, nothing much remarkable and empowering. I found this book to be unnecessary as most of the works in this book are almost/totally the same as those that were already published in his social media.
I would only recommend this book to his fans and are interested to keep the collections. Otherwise, just follow up on his social media is enough.
I don't read a lot of mandarin books but THIS BOOK NEEDS A TRANSLATION. I feel for the author and Peter Su managed to bring out his insight on life thru all the little things he observed. Simple words but yet the meaning is not lost. I've thoroughly enjoyed this book and will read it again when the time comes. Finally thank you for bringing out our thoughts with your beautiful writing. I'm sure a lot of people out there share the same sentiments.
This is the first time I am reading such genre and this is also the first book I finished in 2018.
In this book, the Author share his feelings and opinion about family and friends and many other thought-provoking matters. As I read this book, it definitely made me think through what the Author had said in the book. There are moments where it's really sad and depressing because you realise that you are facing the same thing but that's life. We just have to move on and tomorrow will be a better day. Of course, there are moments where it's happy.
I find that after reading this book, it will somewhat help you with regards to friendship and you will also understand the need to treasure and cherish your family.
Overall, although this is a fast read, it is also a good read and I recommend this book to other Readers as well.
