Well it was about time i finally finished this one. I can say that overall it was interesting to read. It started off strongly and page after page I found quotes I wanted to write down, but after a while he describes the same thing in different words over and over again. To be fair he announces that at the beginning of the book, since his aim is for the reader to find enlightenment and that is really hard and according to Tolle it can only be achieved by repeating the one thing over and over again: being in the NOW. And obviously you have to read it so often until at one moment you just feel it or you just are. Being as difficult as it is naturally it didn't work for me after just one reading. But I manged to understand some new things and get a new perspective on other things, so all in all it was not bad. I give it 3 out of 5 stars, but 3 really good ones, because mostly it was interesting to read, but towards the end it gets quite dry. There you go enjoy :)
