Gave up. She's entertaining but maybe in smaller doses?
First book was good, but couldn't get through this one. Made me bored and anxious at the same time.

While some parts of this book were laugh out loud funny, others were slow or too odd for me. It's a good book with a great message. I love that it normalizes mental health. it's so important to maintain a conversation about mental health in America.

Furiously Happy is a great book that perfectly balances humor with the struggles of mental illness. Towards the end it was hard for me to read due to personal history, but I would recommend the book in a heartbeat.
DNF, 0/5. Jenny Lawson’s writing style reminds me of those fake Tumblr stories from 2013. You know the ones…”and then everyone clapped”. Decided enough was enough after reading a footnote with the unfortunate phrase: “bacon is my spirit animal”.
This is the kind of writing I dream of being able to do. That being said, crazy takes on a whole new light when Jenny Lawson explains it. I felt better just knowing there are people like her out there.
In the final pages, she nails what it's like not only to have mental health issues, but to also accept them; so many people can't rid themselves of the "stigma" of this disease, and Lawson helps them come to terms with their diagnosis.
