Marcus Aurelius's Meditations

I read Aurelius's Meditations for my Dewey Decimal Challenge. This book knocks out the 100-199 group. I think I only have the 200s left. I might read Hans Küng's The Catholic Church: A Short History to finish off the challenge. Here's the review of Meditations I put on Goodreads. I gave it three stars. Mostly yawn:

 

Book 1: Longest Oscar speech ever. 

Book 2: Life is short and you're gonna die. 

Book 3: You get old and senile then who cares. 

Book 4: All you need is yourself. Screw everybody else. 

Book 5: Get the f^ck out of bed and work, or: Marcus Aurelius as the first Calvinist. 

Book 6: Embrace the suck. 

Book 7: Death by quotations: Everyone else said better stuff. 

Book 8: You can't fight Nature. 

Book 9: Mind your own damn business. You're gonna die anyway. 

Book 10: Reflect on yourself and your soul. 

Book 11: Doctor Aurelius, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying about Others. 

Book 12: Don't be a jerk, or no one will care when you, inevitably, die.
