The book with the soul of a blog.
POSER is the kind of book I would expect from a blogger but this is not the case. Claire is not a blogger, she's a hard core writer but her book only leaves you with the desire to keep peeking into her world, her journey. I really wish she had a blog!
I found this book in a second hand book sale. I inmediatly thought it was destiny. There I was taking my time reading each of the tittles each of them piled up in a mountain of hidden treasures. It read POSER. I reached for it, read the back and knew I was meant to read this book. The book is even hard cover! HARD COVER! that is the greatest form of book. Not traveler friendly, not couch friendly. They are the real deal.
Claire tells her yoga journey through a series of life changes or the other way around. You can't really tell.
I mean you can but the story is so well thread together that you can't tell one from the other.
She's funny but most of all she's honest and that my friends, that, I'll buy that anytime.
I can see people saying that some stories are forced into fitting a certain yoga pose but maybe its because I've felt it. I have felt something make sense without even knowing how I connected the dots. That's why I get it. It doesn't have to be linear or logical, yoga and its consequential offsprings are yours and yours only.
The book is her journey, her life, her story of how she tackled yoga and its consequences.
I loved Poser. It's a funny yoga read without being pretencious.
If you don't take yourself too seriously give this book a try.
Here is the Amazon kindle link if you want to download a sample.
