Too many before-afters




Author: Rich Roll
When too many things are stuffed into a story, the charm is lost, too many twines to follow.
The book began with the author asking his wife about 'the cleanse'. Before getting athletic the author was an excellent swimmer. In between came alcoholism. Because of these two journeys, it was hard to remain interested in the story, especially when the author can recall the day his tryst with alcohol began. Its the digging stage, so the author goes back to his past, but making them seperate stories but putting them in one book hurt the story.
I went by the book cover. I should have read the blurb.
