This would be a good choice for someone who has not read that far into philosophy or isn't quite studious. Personally, I have already read into each philosopher discussed and felt like this was just an observation book of things I already know. I feel like the ending of it discussing the future of AI and whatnot ruined the potential of it being an amalgamation of philosophy and facts used to help people keep moving forward.

Mark Manson is a sneaky philosopher, wedging in classical, Freudian and Buddhist themes with his rough-hewn, locker room-style comedy diatribes. Delivered in the audiobook via a deadpan style that sometimes undercuts the urgency of his message, the often rambling, occasionally poignant set of observations on the misery wrought by materialism manages to carve a sharp impression.

The subtitle is misleading. The book is only about hope in that it is out to destroy it. In Manson's thinking, hope is an ever-dangling carrot that is the root of depression, violence, rage and misery. Only through the rejection of fleeting highs, he reasons, can you strive to a higher purpose. The pleasure, as he sees it, is in the pain.

There is much to relish and appreciate in Manson's book, and there is also plenty of unkempt, half-baked solipsism that might have been cultivated into a more consistent theme with better editing. But Manson pulls off a parlor trick by dreaming up a fantastic title, beginning and ending, leaving the reader feeling fulfilled. These may be empty calories, but they sure are tasty.

Manson builds on ideas from psychology, philosophy, and religion to argue that the modern crisis isn’t about lack of success or comfort but a lack of meaningful values and hope. He contrasts the “Thinking Brain” and the “Feeling Brain,” showing how our emotions often override logic, and explains how blind faith in things like money, politics, or certainty can lead us astray.

What makes the book stand out is its mix of dark humor and existential reflection. It doesn’t offer easy solutions instead, it challenges readers to rethink what they believe in and why. The tone is blunt, sometimes cynical, but ultimately it pushes toward a more honest and resilient kind of hope.

It’s a thought-provoking and slightly unsettling read that questions modern happiness and encourages deeper self-awareness

I definitely recommend this book.

Mark never fails to blew my mind with unconventional concepts. Love how he dissect complicated cosmic issues into lay-man terms of explanation. Most importantly, I’m amused by his his humorous writing style & I lost tracked of how many times I literally ‘LOL-ed’ as I’m reading the book. Would recommend if you wish to expand your horizons & read something different from the usual self-help motivational books!

En general creo que se entendió la propuesta del autor en las primeros capítulos, no creo que aporte nada más aparte del hecho que habla en un lenguaje claro y sin muchos tapujos. No es un libro que recomendaría, pero si al menos quieres saber acerca del autor no lo descarto como una lectura.

Waited a couple days to write this review!

Very philosophical and a bit aggressive. I wasn’t fully on board with his ideas. It had an interesting premise:
examining hope, meaning, and emotion in a world that feels increasingly chaotic, but the execution felt repetitive and oddly detached. Instead of feeling insightful, it often felt preachy and over-intellectualized, as if complexity was being used to mask a lack of depth.

I thought it was OK. It made me think at some points. I remember the beginning had some things that I thought were quite interesting. I think I’ll probably read it again if I ever wanna revisit his ideas.

Interesting enough - but not as good as the subtle art of not giving a f*ck ...

Most of the book isn’t too terrible. Not great but some decent points. Maybe a 3. The last part is downright awful.
