Furiously Happy: A Funny Book about Horrible Things by Jenny Lawson

funny inspiring lighthearted relaxing medium-paced

Furiously Happy aims to raise awareness about mental illness, but I can’t say I know much more about the topic now than before reading it. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed it and did take away some valuable lessons—especially the reminder that life is better with humor. It’s something I had forgotten along the way, and I’m grateful for the reminder.

This book is best read when you’re in a relaxed mood—perhaps in the morning with a cup of coffee or on a slow weekend afternoon. I didn’t enjoy it as much when reading before bed, as I was too tired to fully appreciate its energy and humor.
