I really enjoyed learning more about how labor norms changed throughout history and the reminder to work to live rather than live to work.

This is the book I really needed to read at this time in my life. My life feels so busy every day like I’m in a constant loop. I need to do something about this. It’s not making me happy. I feel like I can now put together a plan of how to be less stressed and have more free time, which are truly my end goals.

This is a well-trodden topic, but there's good info here on how to identify and combat the workaholic mentality.

I think the readership for this book is a very specific socio economic group. I am not one of them.

This book has a good concept, but it really rubbed in the wrong way the way it was delivered. Eg. "You're overworking yourself, turn off your email and you'll be better" Oh gee thanks, now all my overworked-related problems are solved.

That aside, the first act of the book on history of labor was pretty good but the rest is...meh.
