Terrible. I checked this out from the library knowing it would be terrible. But it was even worse than anticipated. I cannot believe this is a published book.

I really enjoyed the premise of this book, I think it can be important to acknowledge our moods and explore why we are experiencing them however as with other self help/memoirs this is more about the authors own journey than any tangible methods to introduce into my own life.
