The title is very interesting. It makes me feel like it is written by a person who wasn't very priviledged in life. According to the review, the combination of fiction and non-fiction should also be interesting. I usually enjoy fiction more and would like to see how the combination plays out.

I agree with the review about the book cover. People may miss out on this book since the cover doesn't associate with the theme. I appreciate the author for accommodating different religions even though I am sceptical about reading it. The inclusion of different religions doesn't mean the book will be beneficial to all. Thank you for the review.

The abundant knowledge on masterful effortless theory makes one curios to learn more about it. The book is great especially for people struggling to create balance between living their normal lives and pursuing their life goals. I would say the book is a must read considering I am a big fan of self_help books.

A lot is said about the non-fiction part of the book, it being a self-help book. But I fail to see the fictional side. I have never heard of the effortless theory. And that's why I'm interested in this book.
