The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking by Oliver Burkeman

5.0

I grabbed this because I saw Mark Manson (one of my favourite authors/bloggers) describe it as “an awesome book” in a Twitter thread.

A big chunk of this is stuff I was already pretty familiar with, e.g. from reading about Buddhism and Stoicism, but this book weaves that in with a lot of other ideas in a really compelling way.

It’s a short, excellent read.
