Güçlü Kal 365 Gün Hayata Tutun by Demi Lovato
1.0
Okay first off, I was only able to get a third of the way into this before I had to give up for my own sanity. I say this despite having literally finished a 500+ page book I hated last week; like, I do not give up on books and I gave up on this.
This book is absolutely horrible. Every one of the 365 'chapters' is about five sentences: a quote, followed by Demi saying something vaguely related to or explaining simple quotes, and then a random goal even more loosely related to the quote. There were maybe 10 distinct pieces of advice in the 130+ pages I got through. This gets super repetitive super quickly, and also just has some weirdly bad advice and weird lessons.
I love Demi, but this is just terrible. What would have worked better was is they just had a longer, more coherent entry for each month with a mini essay about how they learned the lessons they're sharing. Granted, that would have been far more work than this disaster, but even one chapter per week would have been better than this.
Worst quotes from the book (admittedly out of context, but I promise the context can't save these):
"Whenever I feel mad or disappointed with someone, I remember that they were once a child."
"I don't tell myself anything I wouldn't tell a four-year-old."
(in a section about facing fears) "I was afraid of vomiting. Then, I became bulimic."
