Tired as F*ck: Burnout at the Hands of Diet, Self-Help, and Hustle Culture by Caroline Dooner

DID NOT FINISH: 37%

I thought parts of this book were interesting and even, in terms of Dooner’s voice, funny. However, it reads more like a memoir than anything. I listened to 37% of the book and most of it was just recounting fad diets and health scares she experienced. Additionally, another reader’s comment encouraged me to look Dooner up and… yikes. As soon as I saw her posts (e.g., the one essentially antagonizing people who use she/they pronouns; the anti-vax/anti-adderall one; the transphobic one) that was enough. There was absolutely nothing encouraging me to finish this book.
