What this book is about

The law of attraction.

Why I picked this book

I liked 'The Secret' mainly because of its comprehensive nature and brevity and I was curious to read the book which served as the inspiration of it. In other words, I was interested in learning what the original idea was like.

Feelings during the reading

It was not well narrated. The thing I used to like most about the audible versions was the narration, but this one just screwed it. Never imagined such a flat narration on audible, almost felt like a computerized reading of the book. Might be because I bought its English version from audible.de, which might not be the usual choice of people, hence not well taken care. So, this was a lesson for me  to better utilize audible country wise memberships.

Anyhow, coming to the content of the book, it was as expected. It felt very much like The Secret but only a bit more verbose, or might be because of the flat narration. There was nothing too new to learn if you have already gone through The Secret, but could be a good revision. But if it is your first book in the category, then I will recommend the physical or kindle version, because the things are really to make a difference in your attitude if read right.

Feelings after the reading

I knew it all, so nothing new for me but definitely could be a good revision if not for this flat narration. Lesson learned, I am never going with this narrator ever again. By the way the name of the narrator is Grainne Regan. So if I come across this name again, I'll just skip the title.

Quote I will carry from this book

I do not remember the exact lines but the idea about if you are getting into the competitive mindset then you are not using the learning of the book right. Also, there is abundance in nature, you are not taking something from anyone rather you are creating for yourself.
