I think this book makes one realize the answers we such are often just simple solutions and readily available. We don't need to look hard for any answers. Thanks for a wonderful review.

I have a pretty good understanding of what it’s like to have one of those days when you’re not feeling it. I think this would be an interesting read, but I find poor editing very distracting.

I agree with the reviewer that the book gives one hope and leave you humbled at the same time. I saw the spelling and grammar mistakes as well. Sure it can be fixed.

I find this book to be worth reading because sometimes I have this 'don't feel like adulting' mood.

The story seems quite inspiring. I don't suffer from anything like depression or anxiety but still like to explore more about myself. So I would happily read this book and recommend it.

I'm honestly having one of those "I don't want to adult" days right now, so this book might be just what I need today. The stories sound both humorous and helpful, and I'm very glad that it's so short. However, I'm not entirely sure if I can handle so many editing errors. I'll still give it a try, but that's often a deal-breaker for me. Thank you for the helpful review.

Sometimes you read self help books you can relate to, most times you don't. Despite the errors I learned a few things from this book. That's good.

Thanks for the wonderful review. It is quite interesting that the author could bring out some issues in life in a light way. I have downloaded my free copy and I will be reading it.

At first, I thought that I would not like the book based on the genre, title, and cover of a book because it didn't seem like something I usually would read. I read the review and it made me interested in giving this book a chance. Even though it says that there is a lot of punctuation mistakes I want to read the humorous events that the author wrote about. I also want to read the life lessons and wisdom that the author shares.

I've always been a fan of Chicken Soup for the Soul series, so I think I'll enjoy this book. I don't mind punctuation errors as long as the story is good. But as it is with everything, too many errors would make you lose interest. I hope I can ignore them as I really want to read this book.

I always feel like I'm picky with commas so the fact that you made the effort to point out that lack of commas were a punctuation error you found in this book made me laugh. I guess I'm not alone haha :) This book seems like an awesome fit for me! I love keeping my days bright, hopeful, and filled with wisdom! I like the formatting too - it gives me serious Chicken Soup for the Soul vibes which I love! Fortunately, this book is free. Thanks for the review. I found your input helpful.

It's too bad about the punctuation errors, but this still sounds like a very helpful book for people needing a boost in self-esteem, etc. I'm just hoping it's not overly religious in nature. Thanks for your insight!
