This is going to be a DNF at 31% for me and there's a very specific reason why。Firstly， I love the topic of this book， so I was very excited to get an advanced copy of this thanks to NetGalley。 I really appreciated the author breaking down the concept of boldness and it not necessarily meaning extravagant living or action。 There are a lot of points in the parts that I read that I really agree with。 However， the author started a section on "antifragility" by making wide sweeping statements about This is going to be a DNF at 31% for me and there's a very specific reason why。Firstly， I love the topic of this book， so I was very excited to get an advanced copy of this thanks to NetGalley。 I really appreciated the author breaking down the concept of boldness and it not necessarily meaning extravagant living or action。 There are a lot of points in the parts that I read that I really agree with。 However， the author started a section on "antifragility" by making wide sweeping statements about generations younger than Gen X'ers like herself。 I'm not sure if I can quote directly， but at the 31% mark， the author talks about how kids and young adults can't be antifragile because of overly cautious parents and the "culture of safteyism"。 The author goes on to talk about how everyone "gets a trophy so they never feel disappointed" and how younger generations use Trigger Warnings to never feel offended。 （Which is not what TWs are for， but I digress！）There's a much better way to make the point of building a thicker skin than to say that people younger than you didn't experience individualism or independence while growing up。 I know a point being made is weak when sweeping generalizations are used to explain it and， frankly， this is exactly what this is。 。。。more
