Burn After Writing (Original)

Gets you to think about life but in a way that is not heavy or sad. I am enjoying it.

Nice book to really get to know yourself. Specially after being a mom. Would recommend to all of the girlies that want to learn about themselves and remember who they are.

Burn After Writing by Sharon Jones is a unique and introspective journal that invites you to dig deep into your thoughts, memories, and emotions. It’s more than just a journal; it’s a personal journey of self-discovery, designed to help you reflect on your life and, ultimately, let go of what no longer serves you. What I Appreciated: • Thought-Provoking Prompts: The journal is filled with prompts that really make you think. Some are light and fun, while others are more challenging, pushing you to confront aspects of your life that you might not have thought about in a long time—or ever. It’s a great way to explore your inner self without the pressure of sharing your thoughts with anyone. • Privacy Encouraged: The idea behind Burn After Writing is that you’re writing just for yourself, with the freedom to be completely honest. The title itself suggests that once you’re done, you might choose to destroy the journal, which adds a sense of liberation to the process. • Simple and Effective Layout: The design is straightforward, with plenty of space for you to write. There’s a minimalist approach to the layout, which keeps the focus on your thoughts and responses rather than distracting visuals or overcomplicated formatting. • Emotional Catharsis: For those who are ready to confront and release their emotions, this journal can be incredibly cathartic. It’s a safe space to pour out your heart and leave behind anything that’s been weighing you down. A Few Considerations: • Depth Varies: Some prompts may feel superficial or repetitive, especially if you’ve done similar journaling exercises before. However, this also means that the journal is accessible to a wide range of users, from those new to self-reflection to more experienced journalers. • Not for Everyone: If you’re not comfortable with deep introspection or prefer guided, structured journaling, this might not be the best fit for you. The journal requires a willingness to be vulnerable, which isn’t always easy. • Burning It: The concept of burning the journal after completing it can be both appealing and daunting. It’s a symbolic act of letting go, but some might find it hard to actually destroy something they’ve spent time and effort on.

I really liked this book to use for doing inner healing work and even just for keepsakes in the future to look back on. But I noticed there were some questions and stuff that were repeated a couple times. Otherwise, great book!

It’s OK

very well great workbook & great read!

This is nice when you’re stressed out and have nobody to vent to!

It’s not what I thought it was going to be. I thought it would be more a guided journaling help book. That’s not what it is. It’s a book that you fill out, Journal style. It has decent questions , lots of lists, though, which I am not entirely a fan of. I could see how this would be very beneficial for teenage girls. I will still fill it out. It doesn’t hurt, but it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for.

good for present .willprobably get the pink one too

Quality of the book is great. All questions are worth writing. Book is not too lengthy or too short. Some Questions are really creative and requires brain storming and some are like rapid fire. This book is perfect for anyone above the age of 17. Any gender will love this book. I want to let you know what kind of questions are asked but that will just kill the fun. The only issue is the book requires a lock because the questions are extremely personal I would rate this book a 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Because such intimate book requires a lock and you don’t want anyone to read your life story

Rolig bok att göra själv elr ge bort !

Buscaba algo que me hiciese pensar y conocerme más a mi misma. Cumple con las expectativas. Llevo la mitad del libro y hay preguntas muy interesantes y otras más divertidas. Para mí no es un fallo pero igual para otra persona el idioma puede ser un inconveniente ya que está en inglés, no he encontrado la traducción al español.

The book arrived in perfect condition and exactly when it was supposed to. It's a good quality paper back. It is a lot thinner than I expected. It's about 150 pages, and some pages there is not a lot of space to write in between prompts. I haven't started working through it yet, but the prompts seems really great so I'm sure it will be a very good self reflection tool. If I need to write more I can always use extra notepads. :) Thanks for the amazing service and care when delivering books. I've purchased 3 books from Amazon ZA and they have all arrived timely and in perfect condition.
