10% Happier by Dan Harris

» PLOT « 

Nightline anchor Dan Harris explores his adventure with meditation, beginning with the discovery, doubt, then ending with acceptance of this practice. 

*This is a nonfiction work, so the plot rating is a reflection of how well the story was told and how well the book was organized to tell a story. 

This book is both a combination of memoir and self help, but it is mainly a memoir. Most of the book was spent talking about his feelings and what he did. 
 

» READABILITY « 

The beginning was pretty slow, and I kept wondering when he would start explaining what he did rather than what happened before he started meditating. 
 

» CHARACTERS « 

*This is a nonfiction work, so no specific rating, just the average 3. 
 

» WRITING « 

The book was more entertaining than self-help books, but not as interesting as other memoirs. 
 

» OVERALL « 

I didn't hate reading this book, but it wasn't great or anything.
