Description

In a small diner at a location so remote that it stands in the middle of the middle of nowhere, John-a man in a hurry-is at a literal and figurative crossroads. Intent only on refueling before moving along on his road trip, John finds sustenance of an entirely different kind: in addition to the specials of the day, the menu lists three questions that all diners are encouraged to consider: Why are you here? Do you fear death? Are you fulfilled? With the guidance of three people he meets at the cafe, John embarks on a quest for answers that metaphorically takes him from the executive suites of the advertising world to the surf of Hawaii's coastline. Along the way, he discovers a new way to look at his life and relationships... and just how much you can learn from a green sea turtle. The Why Cafe will get readers young and free and older and entrenched to rethink their personal yardstick for success. Charming, simple, and inspiring, it will change lives.

A recommendation from a friend. Easy read, which I sadly do not consider a compliment, I can't really add anything that fellow goodreaders haven't already stated. Best case scenario: this is a book for a very specific audience - either very young, or very non-introspective individuals. I didn't find the dialogues realistic at all.

A must-read for everybody who’s wondering about the life they’re living. Almost too short but touches the reader in all the right places. You can’t help starting to think for yourself „Why…?“ A colleague lent this to me when I had to make a big decision. It certainly helped finding my way.

Just finished this book in one sitting and it was a cute story with some thought provoking aspects. the hype is not worth it in my opinion.
