Customer Reviews

Easy to follow, common sense suggestions

How To Live a Life That's Not Boring offers practical suggestions for people who are making important life choices or are simply bored and looking to change things up. This book is a quick read and and the advice and exercises are easy to implement. Unlike other "self-improvement" books, this book's advice stems from the author's experiences as a writer offering the premise that the elements that are required to tell or write a good story are also the required elements to live a life that's not boring. The parallel between storytelling and life is drawn using 9 questions, with a chapter devoted to each question, for the reader to answer about themself. Each question is intended to induce some self refletion and then action. Very suitable for teenagers and college students. The book is full of helpul examples and interesting anecdotes. Highly recommend!
