Maybe i am shallower than i thought but this book was a real pain to read.
The first half is all about expressing some general truths wrapped in really hard to get sentences just for the sake of fkin rhetorics.

I felt like i was banging my head against a wall at each page.
The second part of the book gets better , the author focusing more on virtues.

The final 10% of the book is another hard nut to crack.

Not for the faint-hearted !
