The Little Voice

*Disclaimer: I have studied philosophy and psychology, which may have left me less receptive to this book than other readers* This book is narrated in the first person, looking back at past events. The early part of the strory, set in childhood, is the most enjoyable part.Sadly, as the years roll forwards, the story becomes a bit of a cliche. All a bit "meh". I hate my life, it is boring, "woe is me, whatever can I do to find the real me" stuff.The story promotes the idea of finding personal freedom and happiness outside of the normal ways of life, but if you want something to challenge your world view, opening up your mind to a different way of life, look elsewhere.If you want a funny half a book, read the first half of this, then speed read the remainder of the book. You will not be missing much. My inner voice has already stopped talking to me about this book...

This self-published book is so poorly written, I can not understand how it has received such positive remarks. I tried to finish the whole story in the hope that it would improve but had to give up for fear of wasting anymore of my time.I’ve never thrown a book away before, only sent them to charity but this one was chucked into the recycling bin.

This beautifully written short book is a real eye opener to the pressures put on each one of us to conform to the ideals of westernized society through schooling, religion & consumerism and the consequences that may unfold when you live a life that is not truly your own. The author eloquently describes the psychology of why westernized society works for some but helps us realise why it's not for all. This book aligned with my soul, I highly recommend it!

A compelling read. As an educator I found it gave a refreshing view and made me consider my own teaching style. At times, hilarious and at others, heartbreaking I literally couldn’t put this book down. A very readable insight into psychology. Fiction meats non fiction.

This book grabbed me from the first line, I like books that are different and this lived up to expectations ! really made me want to carry on reading to find out what happens to Yew , I read it in 2 days. I can't wait to read this author's other books now , buy this you will enjoy it.
