This was a real clarion cry, particularly during the pandemic, to seize the day. Very timely and very useful, but non-judgemental or preachy.

A refreshing read from The School of life. Not condescending, nor patronising, just the right amount of ‘it’s ok to feel as you do, but if you’d like to do some exciting things, here’s how’. Simple and an easy read. Recommend.

A More Exciting Life: A Guide to Greater Freedom, Spontaneity and Enjoyment is a book that examines different aspects of modern life and offers perspectives on how to live in a way that is true to yourself and your ideals. This is a book that advocates the value of finding your own voice and learning to turn your back on societal values that put undue burden on your psyche.

THINGS I LOVE
Some of the ideas here are fairly unique and fresh to me. I love the author's take on the later life of Van Gogh and the value of simplicity. Not many books broach the importance of laziness and taking life at your own pace, hence I am glad this one did in a way that is wholesome and educational.

DISLIKES
None.

Many thanks to The School of Life for review copy.
