I enjoyed this book and it was a good reminder for me, with simple tasks and easy to follow every day. Would recommend particularly if you're new to a gratitude practice!

[Rob Welsh · Rating 2 out of 5]

on the positive side, it did get me back into doing daily gratitude and highlight how far I've come on my own journey to tell the difference.
while the message and steps aren't entirely wrong, the book is poorly structured, spelling and grammatical errors throughout.

this is the "Temu" version of Emma Mumford. do yourself a favour, skip this book and seek out Emma Mumford 🙏

I have a mixed opinion on this book. I’ve followed Fran’s podcast for a while and was keen to purchase the book. At first glance it looks as though there’s not much to it and the tasks are repeated each day along with one extra task but once you get going it is the right amount because it’s too much to do otherwise and people would give up which is understandable.

Going through the chapters and writing 3 things to be grateful for each day makes you look for things to be grateful for so I will be continuing this daily to myself in order to practice gratitude.

There are a lot of grammatical errors and double spacing throughout which Fran is aware of and will be revising but in my opinion it should be better to get it right first time as once you’ve finished the book you won’t need to read it again because if you want to redo it next year for example you would just check your notes from the year before to see the tasks so the only people that will benefit from the revision are new buyers of the book.

I also found that everything mentioned in the book has already been mentioned on the podcast so I didn’t get any new information from it. She makes it clear it was written in a very short period of time and there was no copy writer or editor so I can appreciate it all being done in house but on this occasion I think the extra time to perfect it would have been worth it.

I enjoyed this book. I love Fran so much when I saw she was releasing a book I immediately bought it! This book was a welcome change from the magic since the tasks were so manageable and easy to apply to a busy life. As another review mentioned there wasn’t really any new information which hadn’t already been mentioned on the podcast, but nonetheless it was very nice and convenient to have it all in one place in the format of a gratitude workbook. The only criticism I have for this book is obviously all of the grammatical errors and spelling mistakes, it really just gave me the impression that the whole thing was rushed and not that this was something someone had poured time and effort into which is such a shame. I would have thought that rather than rushing this book out in time for the January book club I would have rather waited to ensure that the book was to a higher standard, as I found this really distracting when reading. Overall though the content was good and I think this is a great more manageable alternative to the magic and there will be some practises that I will keep and apply to my daily life.

I know this book got a bit of a bad press for lack of proof reading and a few tiny errors, but I loved the over all message and this for me makes it perfectly imperfect. My only criticism is in the bio at the back she capitalised SINGLE, she is an empowered, successful and vibrant village witch and will attract her perfect soul when the time is right! We are doing this book as part of Francesca's book club and I love that she set herself the challenge of bringing her own work to the book club within a very short amount of time, and I expect that she will bring many more. - We can all learn from that, she has proved again that she can overcome a bit of criticism and so can we all! It is very courageous to be vulnerable to be able to fulfill a goal and there are women and men around the world indebted to Fran. I for one, can't really imagine life without this community (coven) and her positive voice and I really hope I get to meet her at an event this year! Thank you Francesca!

Unfortunately this has been badly written and cheaply produced.

She has openly said that she wrote it in two weeks in December 2023 and published it in a hurry.

This means there are many mistakes it in and there was no proof reading or editing.

The text is uninspiring, off colour and a repeat of her podcast content to the extent that even though I pay for and subscribe to her podcast book club, I am not getting anything new from the episodes this month. So, I really regret both this purchase and my membership this month.

Would not recommend unless she can come up with new content (too many diarrhoea stories) and provide more value instead of just copying the best bits out of books that she has read.

I read this book from January 1st and honestly I cannot recommend it enough! What an amazing high vibe way to start the year. I have felt inspired & motivated throughout all of January a month usually feeling like no man’s land.

There are a couple of grammatical errors but hey, perfect is not done and Francesca Amber clearly wanted this done and I’m so glad she did! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Francesca 🤍

Started this book on the 1st of January and it's been great, it's turned a month that for me is usually dull, dark, depressing and never-ending into one that's been uplifting and filled with positivity and gratitude, yes there are a few mistakes with spelling and grammar but it just shows how much Fran wanted this book out to help others like myself so well done Fran and I for one am looking forward to the revised version and all the other good stuff you have planned for the future.

[Emma · Rating 3 out of 5]

I feel this book was rushed to publish to get it out for the book club. I think I’d have much preferred it to have taken more time and be released when it was ready to be.
I found some of the daily tasks a bit repetitive and tailed off on around day 12. I love Fran and love what she stands for, but this book didn’t grip me the way I’d hoped it to.

[Leah Waller · Rating 3 out of 5]

I read this in January rather than doing ‘The Magic’ as my usual tradition…
A good read and I would say ‘easier’ than the magic as none of the daily tasks require preparation or much work so can be completed easily.
I love the podcast by Fran but did expect a little more from the book.
Enjoyed it but felt something was missing

This is the type of book you read with a positive mindset and with doing the physical activities a lot will manifest simply by being so grateful.

I found some of the tasks full on each day but overall the book is positive and definitely enjoyed listening to this on Francessca's book club bitches podcast ( definitely worth the subscription )

✨️ Here's to 2024 ✨️

Full of fantastic tips and tasks to help you to create the life of your dreams, starting with the powerful lotion of gratitude.

I liked this book as it was easy to follow and the tasks themselves were manageable.

[Georgie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sorry Fran! Love you to pieces but not sure this was made with every ounce of love you have and thats why it’s gone from 4 stars to 3. Has been helpful to work through his January though! So thank you xxx

Really enjoyed this 22 day manifesting challenge… it really helped me focus on the positives and joy in my life. Will definitely read again as and when needed! Learnt some great tips to help improve my practice of gratitude.

Every mum’s dream. An easy self development book that they can implement daily in 5-10 mins! I loved this. Each day was so exciting. I show more gratitude for my life automatically now and look at situations differently. I manifested money and opportunities during the 22 days. Have LOVED it! Would highly recommend.
