The author's tone of writing is full of wisdom that makes you eager to hear more. It was clear that the author had experience in life and travel, making the story very intriguing to the advice given. The short stories drawing you in, in a fascinating way, and it is easy to read and understand. The descriptive method is wonderful. The unique quotes puts story and lesson together.

This is one of the best books I have read in a while. This book is different, I must say. The ideas are conveyed coherently and they relate to our lives as humans. The writing style is top-notch, and stands out from the regular boring books we have out there.

I thought the writing style was refreshing for your more typical cut and dry self help books. Using the stories from her own life, the author was able to find a way to relate to just about anyone reading it.

I liked the writing style. The author, using her own life experiences as a catalyst for life lessons, was smart. It made the book fun to read.

I feel that the writing style was humourous and its laid back-ness helped me connect more to it because I don't generally read self-help books. But it sure was a little way too chaotic which made it difficult to keep track of the book.

It is unusual but in a good way. That kind of writing sometimes can be wrong if the author doesn't know how to handle it. This book is written perfectly, and I think the author did a good job.

I really enjoyed her style of writing. But the scenarios could have used a bit more order. The thing with most self-help books is that they are always written in a formal way. And after a few such reads, they tend to feel repetitive. So, what I liked most was how the author added humor to her writing.

For the genre this book falls under, it was exceptionally well written. There were instances of humor and encouragements as it progressed.

I agree with you that the writing style seemed to jump back and forth, and at times that made it more challenging to follow the flow of the story. I prefer more cohesion in a story, when possible.
