I Don't Want To Grow Up: Life, Liberty, and Happiness. Without a Career. (Nature Book Series) Paperback – January 13, 2021

I ran into Scott on Substack. You should see the pictures of the places he has been. They are absolutely beautiful! I didn’t happen on this book and what he presents until I was in my late 60s and retired. So, I have lived the life he says to consider not living, but more importantly he provides principles for living your best life no matter what that is grown up or not grown up. I enjoyed the book and highly recommend it as my wife and I did eventually start a whole new life of our own choosing and much of what Scott says is of good practical use. If your instincts/intuition is leaning towards buying a copy, that is all you need to know.

I originally saw this book on TikTok and there were lot of comments saying amazing things about this book. I really wanted to see what the hype was about, so I decided to purchase it. After finishing the book in less than 2 days, I realized what the hype was all about. One of Scott major points in his books is that it’s never too late to do anything, which really resonates with me as someone who struggles with what I want to do with my life. This is one of the best books I have ever read and one of my absolute favorites. I loved this book so much a few days later I went back on Amazon and bought the rest of his books! I have a hard time finding books that interest me and make me actually want to read them, so this says a lot. One thing that I love most is the spacing between the lines. As a person with ADHD and someone who has a hard time reading, I find that this book is very easy to follow along and focus on. I also love the short yet detailed chapters. I reached out to Scott yesterday and told him how much of a fan I am. He is one of the sweetest, most kind, open minded authors I’ve ever reached out to. I love following along Scott’s journey and can’t wait to see what’s next. All of that being said, I am beyond pleased with my purchase!Side note: Scotts instagram is full of beautiful scenic pictures of all the places he goes. I highly suggest giving him a follow on there if you have instagram!

I greatly enjoyed this book.. For some time now, I have been on a journey of breaking away from the societal plan for people's lives... Retired and learning to do Whatever makes ME Happy has become a way of life but it has not been an easy break. I realize that we have been trained to think a certain way, and this book definitely challenges that way of thought... Easy to read and definitely challenging... Scott, if you read this review, please check my book out, call Run to the river... Would love to know what you think and read your review on my book....Jim Girouard...

Essential read for all the 'adult children' trying to make their way through life. This book is for everyone and provides a simplistic, yet reflective approach for all the adventures that await!

Very good, a bit extreme in some ideas but good to choose what you need.

I bought the book last year when I freshly graduated high school because life didn’t feel real or I wasn’t ready for it. So because of the title I decided to give it a go. But I didn’t read it till now before I started college and boy did I need to. This book was so well written and it completely changed my perspective about life. So much so that I decided to change my major and go with my heart and study art. I wasn't going to at first because so many people told me I couldn't make a living from it and I listened well almost until the last minute until I picked up this book. Like Scott Stillman said the world needs more freaks, and I so happened to be one. And I’m going to choose my path and not be swayed by anyone’s opinion. I truly thank Scott Stillman for writing this book. It was eye-opening and if I’m being serious I’m going to read it again. (I just finished.) And I guess you can say I've taken the breadcrumb the universe laid down for me. Again, Thank you, Scott.

This book is truly amazing im so very grateful for Scott’s perspective I believe this book can change lives!! I read it in one sitting and will definitely be reading it over again it encourages readers to stay true to their dreams whatever that looks like for them and helps readers to remember the childlike wonder of what life was like before all of societal standards and how nature can be our greatest teacher.

I saw this book on TikTok, and I thought it would be a self help book, but instead I got a book about a guy writing about his life and working part time. The book isn’t bad though, but the part about money not being the goal while he also talks about being able to afford skiing equipment and such, confused me and made me want to stop reading. The reason you are able to afford your camper van and house was all BECAUSE of money, the reason you can afford to sell everything and live the life you want is from the comfort of money. The reason you even work is because you need money, is it not? I like some of the things he says in this book but most of the time he contradicts himself and tells his audience that the key to living your life is not doing something that he is actively doing. This is just the classic “white privileged man” telling the world that “you can do whatever I’m doing” book.
