Well, I've heard nothing but raves about this book ... how it's a book you just HAVE to read and won't be sorry that you did. Hmmm?!

I am a pretty fast reader normally and I had such a difficult time getting into this book ... all the talk about Quality and what it is and how to get it and where it comes from, I was so confused ... it got to where I just began skipping over those sections where he begins to talk like this. Maybe that is why I did't enjoy the book ... maybe I missed some important bits in those parts I skipped ... but if I didn't skip them, I don't think that I would have ever finished the book!!

I am not one to really read "self help" books to begin with (and to be honest, I didn't realize that this is what this book was when I decided to go ahead and give it a try) so I did go into it without a preconceived notion that I wasn't going to like it ... but now that I see it is in the "self-help" category, maybe that also helps to understand why this book just wasn't my "cuppa tea" ...

I enjoyed the afterword more than anything else ...

There is a sequel to the book called ... Lila: An Inquiry Into Morals and one to that called ... Lila's Child: An Inquiry Into Quality
