The Book of Why by Nicholas Montemarano
3.0

The title catch my attention! That why I choose this book at first without really knowing what is was about. It's more or less a fiction book, with pieces of self-help/magic thinking throw here and there in the story, the protagonist itself is a self-help writer so... There are some good part, mostly some reflexion about life and positive thinking, which is a good thing, better be positive, but always be careful to not become blinded by magical thinking, but it mostly an average life drama story with a writing slightly below average. Kind of a self-help book with a story. It seem I can make a comprehensible point of view here so I should stop, I hope you get the point of that book. Not a bad one, but not really a good one either. I would have like deeper reflexion and maybe something a bit more special about the story.
