Unf*ck Yourself: Get Out of Your Head and into Your Life by Gary John Bishop
4.0
One of the best books I've read/listened to in a while (only 3 hours, on Hoopla). The beginning is kind of slow, so skip on past it and get into the meatier chapters ;)
What a terrific book to read during these difficult times as well!
As an aside, I tend to avoid/refuse self-help-y books and rate them poorly (my 2-star review of Mark Manson's last book is a "top liked review" on Goodreads, for a perspective of my opinions/tastes) but when a trusted friend who predominantly reads comics rated this 5-stars last year, I put it on my "to-read" list. Feeling a little blue over the state of current affairs, I opted to give this a try last... stayed up to finish and LISTENED TO THE ENTIRE THING AGAIN THIS MORNING.
I also sent a text about this book to 7 people, which I'm not sure I've ever done before... My fave quote from the book
“You have the life you’re willing to put up with”
