GOING BUDDHIST by PETER J CONRADI

RATING: D+

Despite being a messy mess of a book - not exactly about Buddhism nor an autobiography but a combination of the two - yet neither really - there were several key points discussed that gave me material to consider and differing views on facts I already knew. 

There is no real storyline, nor do the chapters progress very sensibly, but it was a book I had not yet read slightly connected to Buddhism. I was not really left impressed, but prefer to have read it than not. I would reccommend it to someone loosely interested in Buddhism and people who follow Buddhism - but not for those wanting to progress their own studies and delve into the texts and serious hard work of a personal practice.
