Everyone seems to have really strong opinions on this book, but I can't say that I lean one way or the other. I liked this book, but I definitely didn't love or hate it. There are a lot of inspirational ideals that you would probably find in a self-help book, and a lot of illusions to the law of attraction. I thought it was a nice story, but I'm not sure I felt utterly changed by the message. I would just read it to form your own decision, the sentiments are nice whether you enjoy it or not!
