I also read Meditations this year. Definitely not what I was expecting. It's not cohesive at all. My biggest takeaways were the inevitability of death and generally letting go of our sense of control.

Expecting it to be "cohesive" seems like an odd thing, considering it's literally a bunch of musings & meditations which were taken from a man's private journal.

I've found many of the individual musings to be quite interesting. In particular the ones that relate to perception (my own biggest pitfall).
