I really love Parks & Rec and The Good Place, so I was curious to check out this book by the creator of those shows, Michael Schur. I've seen him in a few interviews too and he's always seemed like a genuinely nice and thoughtful person, on top of being funny.
And his voice certainly comes through in this book, especially since I listened to the audiobook which is narrated by him. In the intro he explains that this is a sort-of Philosophy 101 book based off his research when making The Good Place, and that's definitely accurate. He never gets into anything too deep, but he keeps things light and fun so that it is entertaining throughout.
He has a few personal anecdotes here and there, but I think I was hoping for a few more insights into his career and some of the shows he's worked on. That's probably more my fault for having expectations of this book that it never promised.
