Charlotte (184 KP) rated Smile More Stress Less in Books
Jun 26, 2021
I didn't even make it to any of the exercises and I was already thinking about/more aware of how I let stress control me.
I love the idea of using playful exaggerations and a different voice to break the negative stress/thoughts. Imagining something happening to combat the self-created stress and smiling whilst I do it really appeals to me.....basically joking/making light of a situation.
Smile more, stress less is a great tool for anyone suffering from stress, anxiety etc it's broken down into manageable sections, without the judgemental "you must do this right the first time!" rubbish. It's easy to get to grips with and not weighed down with unnecessary long confusing words and tasks.

ClareR (6253 KP) rated A Traveller at the Gates of Wisdom in Books
Sep 3, 2022
I’ve often thought that life must have some universal stories: things that happen in our lives that have happened untold times before throughout history, and will probably happen countless times in the future.
That is the premise that ‘A Traveller’ works from. And it’s done so cleverly.
We begin in the Roman world in 1AD, and swap between different continents and cultures. The story remains the same, of love, loss, betrayal, revenge and death. There’s a lot of births and deaths. It really puts in to perspective humanity’s inability to learn from its mistakes - and we just keep on making them in to the future.
This is such a thought provoking, imaginative read. John Boyne just never seems to let me down.
