Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with a digital review copy.

To preclude your work by saying that you do not fall into the confines of a quote-unquote regular writer does not suddenly abdicate you of having to at least try writing well. The author evidently thought it would come off as contrarian, as a way to think outside the box.
When in reality, this is a lousy first draft of an extremely poorly executed book.

If you have read a few books in your life, you tend to pick up some things. I did not read one well-written sentence. I suppose English is not the author’s first language - neither is it mine - but some outside perspective sure would have been nice. Verbs are inaccurate, attempts to convey a message through dialogue are amateurish, and it all comes off as a first draft. Which I’m sure it is. Sentences are put together in such a lousy matter they could not have survived a rewrite.

You can’t even begin to consider the subject because of how glaringly amateurish this is. And I’m largely only saying that because of the false sense of being outside the bounds of being a writer, whatever that even means.
How can you consider intellectual suicide if there’s not one sentence of reasonable rhetoric to actually consider?

This book was not for me but it can be your best read. Do not let my personal tastes influence your reading experience.

This book goes deep into the concept of intellectual suicide, shedding light on its various manifestations and the profound impact it has on individuals and society. Through Tommaso's journey, the book exposes the consequences of irrational choices driven by superstitions, prejudices, and conformity. What struck me most about this book is its unflinching exploration of procreation as a form of intellectual suicide, challenging readers to confront the ethical implications of bringing new lives into a world fraught with existential complexities. This book is a great read for anyone seeking to engage with philosophical discourse in a meaningful way.

Alright folks, let's talk about Concerning Intellectual Suicide in The Human Race – buckle up because this book is about to blow your mind! Ever wonder why people sometimes make the most bone-headed decisions? Well, this gem goes headfirst into the murky waters of intellectual suicide, exposing how our brains sometimes take a vacation when we really need them most. Meet Tommaso, the poster child for parental oopsies, and join him on a wild ride through the tangled mess of human existence. But fair warning, this ain't your typical Sunday afternoon read – it's a mind-bending exploration of life, death, and everything in between. So, if you're ready to challenge your beliefs, expand your mind, and maybe even question your sanity, grab a copy of this bad boy and get ready for a rollercoaster of existential proportions! 🎢
