() I really wanted to love this book. I did As the thought of someone trying to better their outlook on life. But I had a hard time with this one, mostly because it was so self-absorbed. If you're going to write a book like this, perhaps you should keep it as a journal. But to publish it? It implies that it might be helpful to someone more. I'm not so sure. A blog on this topic without the book may have was book better.Once I got past the early parts of this, the writer however, I did find it easier to read. The has a wonderful style, so I have no complaints with her work. It's the fact that she has this already happy life (for most people) but doesn't feel happy. She has a husband, children, supporting friends, yadda yadda. To me, someone actually sitting down and doing this (and then publishing it!) is someone that has the time, money, and status in life where she can afford to do it. I doubt your averages single mother trying to put food on the table would have much use for the writer this book.I give it three stars because I think the has a great amount of talent. I appreciate what the author was trying to does but somehow (for me at least) it didn't work.
