Yeah I read it oo as a kid or teenager. It is written in a way that is intended to make you impressed by its deepness, but even back then I have always found there was very little actual substance to it.

My teacher read this to my 8th grade class and I wrote a 1-page (double-spaced) essay on why it was shit.

It is...or at least it's a good book.
Also OP is most certainly a faggot.
Not everything has to be 800 pages and impossible to read to have meaning. Should try his other book as well (pic related). It's much better and like a simpler version of "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".

People say this book is good for those who lacked a strong father figure in their life but my friend is way too into Peterson and he couldn't have asked for a better father.
It's for weak willed people who only see respect and authenticity in popularity, although that may seem mean it's the truth.
