For this project, I applied the tools and strategies from the Revolutionize Your Reading: Critical Reading for Personal Transformation course to actively read and engage with Austin Kleon’s book Steal Like an Artist.

I approached the book with intention—annotating, reflecting, and analyzing the key messages through the lens of critical reading. I then wrote a thoughtful review that summarizes the book’s main ideas, evaluates its strengths and limitations, and reflects on its relevance to my personal and creative journey.

This exercise helped me deepen my understanding of the material, connect it to my own creative process, and sharpen my ability to critically engage with texts beyond just passive reading.
