There isn't anything especially unique or original about this, not anything I didn't already know.
At times, I thought it was just a money making sequel to How To Stay Alive just because some of the very short chapters and quick poetry didn't have the same emotional power or thought as Haig's previous mental health memoir.
There is a buzz feed listicle vibe to quite a few chapters.
But, it's engaging. It's wholesome. It's very warm. It's honest but not raw. It's unoriginal but it is Matt Haig's tone of voice, which is always lovely to read.
