Goosebumps review: An inspirational read for aspiring entrepreneurs. Nina will inspire the readers with her positive approach towards the life and as an entrepreneur.
(4 / 5)
Bag it all is truly a bag it all story. I believed that a one stretch read suits thrillers and crime novels but Bag it all has broken my view of it. Nina has phased her story in such a way that one cannot but it down until they finish it. The 200 pages of this inspirational story has almost three decades of experience in it.
Nina hasn't concentrated only about her story instead she has given worthy advises for individuals who thrive to succeed in their respective career. Every chapter has highlighted learning box which carries valuable life lessons.
The growth of Baggit and its literal rise to the peak has been narrated to the perfection. Rather than being a biography the book is a road to success for entrepreneurs. The ups and downs of Baggit and the lessons Nina teaches through those experiences are valuable.
I loved the usage of sentences throughout the book. For example when explaining about forgetting the past and moving on Nina states "Had Cinderella turned back to pick up her shoe, she wouldn't have become a princess". It is one of my favorites in the book.
The book has everything from philosophy at times (Explaining about men and women gender equality), witty incidents, good and bad. Though the story is inspirational it does lag in between. The SSY part and few other instances might seem a bit of a drag, but I didn't feel it.
On the whole it is an inspirational read for aspiring entrepreneurs. Nina will inspire you as an entrepreneur and a caring employer.
