I really enjoyed this book. The author goes on a multi-year quest to pick up Stoicism in order to help er react to life. Then friends run into scenarios, COVID, her column gets cut, etc.

Her approach is very down to earth and not preachy as some books could get. Topics from the ancients are mentioned or quoted, then the author will bring it into the modern day and elaborate on it.

I will be re-reading this. I'd love to hear if the cover photo was inspired on one of her beach walks.
