Review of 'Better Than Before: Mastering the Habits of Our Everyday Lives' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

This book reads like a magazine article, very conversational and easy going without a lot of information. The author starts out with four types of people - Upholder, Obliger, Questioner, and Rebel. This is an interesting framing for the topic at hand. Unfortunately the majority of the book is written only from the perspective of the author, who labels herself as an "Upholder". So if you fit this type you might find this book very helpful. Everyone else only gets a smattering of information and Rebels get next to nothing. On the good side it's a quick read and there are occasional valuable tidbits. Perhaps the best of these is the "further reading"section at the back of the book. In fact just start there and skip this one altogether.
