This is an absolute amazing book. A wonderful story written with amazingly descriptive language. It borders on poetry at points. However, be aware that this coming-of-age story deals with childhood trauma including abandonment. It's a must read, but anyone that might be triggered, do so with fair warning. I found myself crying on multiple occasions with this book.

I had this book on my to-read list for quite a while. I started this with a hesitation, thinking that I wasn't in the mood for another self help book. Instead, this was a amusing story following the author through his Buddhist journey. Plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. I think I'm 10% happier!
