short but sweet adventure that really showcases what happens when sherlock holmes meets his match, couldve been more fleshed out the ending felt a bit rushed but still quite good.

A wonderful book that makes you feel like the universe is great
a wonderful book that is filled to the brim with whimsy, as a narrative it goes in a bunch of directions but they all sort of follow the theme of community, life, wanderlust, adventure and friendship, its unlike any book ive read. Cant recommend it enough.

A decent beginning to change
4 stars
Cal Newports book is a decent book that helps give some perspective on how we interact with technology and I thought the book was well written and offered some tips as well as ways to change your outlook on tech without becoming isolated. He also makes sure to address numerous scenarios as he emphasises that no one size fits all.
His dismissal of online friendships is a bit of a low point because like i get he probably means like aunts you never see and only talk to on facebook but people these days form lifelong friendships online all the time and studies show that while theres challenges to such a friendship its emotionally no less meaningful, so i feel he couldve worded some things better here and there.
Also references to the 2016 us presidential election make the book a bit dated. However overall a solid read I'd recommend …
