365 Days of Wonder: Mr. Browne's Book of Precepts by R.J. Palacio
3.0
I’m a sucker for a good precept, especially after reading RJ Palacio’s book, Wonder. I really began enjoying how each day had its own quote to read, with little intros from the fictional English teacher, Mr Browne. Then. Then I realized how very many authors of said precepts were men. It’s overwhelmingly filled with precepts from men in general, and white men specifically. It became distracting, to be honest. The index in the back included profiles of those who said or wrote the original quotes. That was a welcome addition for interest, but definitely made it clear whose voices were included, and which were not. Disappointing.
