Man's Search for Meaning

I enjoyed reading Part One and I felt a bit bored when I read Part Two.
Overall, this is one of the best books to tell the living experience in the WWII concentration camp in Auschwitz where there are horrible places such as gas chambers, crematoriums, and massacres.
They can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.
You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always control what you will feel and do about what happens to you. 💪
I would also like to recommend "The Happiest Man on Earth by Eddie Jaku." if you like this book.

Great review Liong to a bittersweet book. By that I refer to those who survived to tell the story.
This was required reading when I was in school. I hope it's still on the curriculum. It's stayed with me all these years.

This is one of those books that keeps staring at me from my bookshelf like “What’s it going to take to get you to actually commit and read me?”

Yes, Jenna's comment is creative, Stacey B. :-)
It's so important that this book (and other books about the Holocaust & other crimes against humanity) continue to be read. Thanks for your review, reminding all your friends.

I wouldn't say I enjoyed part one, but it was very illustrative. Part two, well, I found a lot of gaps in his theory, but it's a great book to make us see life different and also, to understand the suffering of the innocents in the war
