I think we've all finished (except for Bookworm?) but I'm putting this up anyway. I really enjoyed this book. I almost gave it five stars but the end dragged a little and become less cohesive so I dropped it to four.

I haven't finished anything! So yes, move on without me. I'll have to start this project over on my own.

There was a little too much info at the end - more than I ever wanted to know about Gandhi. I admired his fortitude and perseverance, but I also thought he burdened himself with his personal issues, like diet and religion. That frustrated me, and I sensed he was obsessive compulsive. He certainly would have made a great hippie in the 60s.

He was somewhat obsessive with his diet, but he had his convictions with regard to the animals. I tried to understand it but probably wasn't that successful. I did find it interesting that he lived until 78 (then assassinated) with often only a diet of fruit and nuts.

It bothered me that he decided all these things and then his family just had to go along with it. I mean, I know he discussed issues with them but I felt that it was his way and that was it. I know it was cultural and I shouldn't let it bother me, but still .......

And I absolutely loved his definition of a lawyer. If even half the lawyers subscribed to his viewpoint, the world would be a much better place.

In any case, thanks for reading along with me. This was a good one!!
