You should enjoy the moment, dream big, have it all, get up before the sun, track your water consumption, go on date nights, and be the best. Or maybe you should ignore what people think, live on dry shampoo, be a negligent PTA mom, have a dirty house, and claim your hot mess like a badge of honor.

Reviews for Summary of Kendra Adachi's The Lazy Genius Way

[Haily Campbell · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I mean, it hits a lot of good points, but this is clearly written by an AI. It is not thoughtfully written. It’s a bit confusing, repeats sentences, refers to the author as the wrong gender, and composes incoherent points quite frequently. If you’ve ever chatted with an AI, you’d know very quickly this is precisely that. However, if you’d like to get the main points from the book then sure, this will get you close.
