I Dare Me

November 15, 2013

Using boredom as a prod to action, veteran journalist and Emmy Award winner Cahn started a blog chronicling her decision to try something new every day for a year. Experiences such as riding a mechanical bull, spending a day in a wheelchair, and going to the movies alone brought creativity and excitement back into her life. Cahn also lists some additional ideas to give readers further inspiration. Some of the activities are fairly ordinary, such as finding one's way through a corn maze, but others (entering a high-heel race) are more daring. VERDICT A fun and accessible read for those looking to add excitement to their lives.
