bloody brilliant. something I think we all ought to read.
A nice and helpful reminder to not take everything too seriously, and enjoy life. Also to look after ourselves more and be abit more compassionate. Really nice pep talk, written in a funny and witty way. Good book to dip in and out of.
This was just so good... So gooey, and warm, and comforting. And I don't even like kids... Thank you, Laura Jane Williams. You gave me loads to think about. And to act on. Plus, i loved the little lists to fill out, my nerdy side was beyond herself.
But HOWPretty interesting read. Mindfulness type of actions. I know what she says to do Is right... Speak up, say what you want etc... But the part that is missing is exactly HOW you do it. I can stand here all day saying I'm going to do this do that and not care. But put me in the situation real life and zero, zip, nadda!
This is the best non-fiction book I’ve read so far and it got a spot on my favorites!!For those who know me, you know how much I love kids and how I always say that we can learn SO much through them. Kids are raw human beings that haven’t had their personalities shaped by society yet, allowing them to live freely and be whoever they are and dream about whatever they want. This book is exactly about that, about allowing yourself to worry less and solve your problems as children!The author stopped...
Very sweet and a welcome pick me up. The insights are not ground-breaking but could be for a tween! Would recommend if you need to be reminded of how worthy you are. Apart from that, I love and adore Laura Jane Williams as a person and on her Instagram. If you do so, too, please pick this book up. It won't take long to get trough it :)
This book was probably the best thing I’ve read all year. It moved me, made me put it down to turn to my boyfriend and say, this is how I’ve been feeling and finally, I have the words to explain it. Burnout is a funny thing, and Laura writes in a way that makes you go ‘yes, exactly this’. I will go back to it over and over.
This book is exactly what I didn't know I needed. Full review to come @ explosivebagel.com
has a lot of good advice that may sound obvious but i needed to hear. 4 stars bc of the millennial humor that i didn’t particularly enjoy
Bloody fantastic Seriously loved this- the way it’s written just feels like you’re chatting with a friend rather than reading a book- it’s got a lot of humour in it which makes even the tougher lessons easier to digest- it’s suuuuuuper relatable as it covers such a variety of aspect of adulthood - it didn’t feel preachy at all which was a concern I had going into it. It felt really genuine and like the author fully believed in the stuff she was writing and that she lived it too - the points she
Didn't quite hit the mark...Having read Becoming I was feeling quite excited about this book but unfortunately it didn't hit the mark. It's a kind of self help book but nothing particularly enlightening. It's a little haphazard. However, there are a few parts around the author's own personal challenges and what worked for her - honest disclosure and insight.
Not as insightful as I'd hoped. I found it more reassuring that it's okay that I'm a big child at heart. A book I could gave done with in my early twenties I feel, but thankfully life has taught me to not give a shit what people think and that doing what makes you happy is a life motto we all should adopt.
Absolutely loved this book, so much advice I didn’t even know I needed. Such refreshing perspectives and really made me stop and take stock. I highlighted SO many passages throughout, every single chapter really spoke to me. Super easy to read too.
