I decided to read Let That Sh*t Go* because I often tend to overthink and hold onto things for longer than necessary. This book truly felt like a much-needed reset. What caught my attention was how straightforward and authentic the message is: not all tasks deserve your attention.
I have experienced moments where I thought, 'Wow, I really do this,' particularly when it comes to replaying situations in my head. The lesson that has stuck with me is that just because I think something does not necessarily mean it is true, and that alone has helped me change my perspective.
While there were some parts that were repetitive, the message was reinforced in a helpful way. This book is not a complex self-help book, but rather it serves as a reminder to breathe, slow down, and safeguard your peace.
If you are a person who struggles with overthinking or needs assistance in letting things go, I would highly recommend it.

I appreciated the relaxed, millennial tone of this book and the author’s chill, conversational approach. The trendy jargon and banter were engaging and translated especially well to audio — it kept me listening without zoning out.
One section, in particular, stood out as deeply emotional and unsettling. The author’s recounting of a traumatic family incident was powerful, and hearing her voice break during that portion added a rawness that was difficult to listen to, but undeniably impactful.
While I took away several helpful insights, some of the advice felt flippant or defensive. At times, it seemed to lean toward self-protection at the expense of empathy, and I found myself questioning how certain tips would land in real-world interactions. In practice, following some of this guidance could come across as abrasive rather than empowering.
Overall, this was a mixed experience for me. The tone and audio delivery were strong, and there were meaningful moments throughout, but some of the messaging felt overindulgent and occasionally eye-roll-inducing. Readers who appreciate a blunt, millennial voice may connect with it more strongly, while others may wish for a more balanced approach.

My Airport Find 📖

I picked up Let That Sh*t Go because I tend to overthink and hold onto things longer than I should, and honestly, it was exactly what I needed. It’s a super straightforward, easy read with a simple message: not everything deserves your energy. That part really hit for me, especially because I catch myself replaying situations in my head all the time.

Some parts were a little repetitive. Overall, it’s not a deep or complicated self-help book—it’s more of a reminder to slow down, breathe, and protect your peace.

If you’re someone who struggles with overthinking, I’d definitely recommend it.

I liked this book! There were a lot of different suggestions on how to cope with mental health and I found a couple of her helpful but the rest weren’t really suggestions when I felt like the authors tried to make it seem like it !! I would recommend this book to anybody struggling with their mental health and need strategies to cope!
