The Geography of Bliss: One Grump's Search for the Happiest Places in the World by Eric Weiner

5.0

I don't normally read non-fiction, but I heard a lecture by the author on public radio and was intrigued. The subject itself is interesting, but by far the best part of this book is Weiner's excellent narrative voice. This book is at times funny, insightful and even sad. And sometimes, like India, it is all these things at once.

This book is worth a read, for anyone who has ever wondered what makes people happy, or whether we should even bother wondering about it in the first place.
