I loved the organization and presentation of the book. It made it much easier to follow, and I could just proceed to the chapters I thought would be beneficial.

I believe that the author's conversational style and approach make it easier for readers to read the book. It will have a much greater impact than other self-help books because there is a wider range of options and, as you mentioned, the reader does not have to read the book from beginning to end.
Happiness cannot be purchased, but books can.

Well, I love Meyers writing style in this book. It helps one to locate the area affecting him and read, and can decide to ignore the other areas, if he feels he is not in need of them.

Personally, I prefer self-help books written in a conversational tone because it is simpler to follow and much simpler to dip in and out of different sections of the book. Another excellent technique to accommodate a variety of readers' needs is to allow readers to read the book in any order they choose.

It's excellent and instructive. It motivates the reader to do either one or two tasks and also change their perspective on life.

Yes, I like the conversational style the author made the book. I would love it if all self-help books are written like this. One doesn't need to read through pages unnecessarily, just go to your preferred page and decide if the book is for you or not.

The conversational style employed in this book is undoubtedly the most effective way to engage readers of self-help books. A fairly reasonable attempt is made to interact with the reader in the "try this" section. I think the writing is excellent!

I love how the author was able to write the book in two segments it was very clear and easy to select the area that bothers every reader. However, I did not like the writing style.

Personally, I like self-help books written in a conversational style since it is much simpler to jump in and out of different sections of the book and it is easier to follow the author's point of view. It's also a terrific approach to cater to a variety of readers' demands to allow readers to read the book in any order they like.
