For the most part, a pleasantly scattered approach.
Speculation, hedging and hey, look what nifty thing this cephalopod can do! Then discussing current knowledge on consciousness in humans, which, okay, but not what I was reading it for? Then back to that thing the octopus or cephalopod did and an associated theory. 1/2
I really enjoyed The book of Charlie. I believe Charlie enjoyed life even when things weren‘t perfect. He figured out how to be successful in life after the untimely and tragic death of his father. He seemed to find ways to work for his goals. I almost felt as if I knew Charlie by the end of his life. If you‘re looking for a very good true story of a remarkable man, you won‘t be disappointed. 4.5/5
