Book Review: Do Less

Book Review: Do Less

Do less.

What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear those words?

I purchased this book with the grand intention of reading it, sharing my thoughts, and doing less. But instead, I put it on my bookshelf, and didn’t open it for, several months. And then, only after I had made myself the sickest I’ve been for a very long time by trying to do too much… all while five months pregnant.

I finally read the book. And I’m sharing my thoughts so you can decide if it’s worth the read for you!

Book Report- The Five Love Languages  

Book Report- The Five Love Languages    

f there is one thing that I truly believe, it’s that we are all works in progress. Every day we have the opportunity to get better. Since the moment I committed to Rob in front of our friends and family our marriage has been something I continuously want to make better.

Which leads me to this book.

I borrowed it on audio from Hoopla (but I have a physical copy in my library!) and we listened to it together on our mini-road trip. To be fair, I borrowed a couple books so I could let him choose which one we would “read,” but he let me choose, and I went with this one since I knew we could complete it during our trip.
