Thoughts: I bought this book last year because I saw posts about it on Instagram and it seemed like it would be a neat read. I was incredibly disappointed. I expected poetry – it had absolutely no poetry, it was pretty much just a self-help book. Some of the messages were nice, but a lot of it seemed very repetitive. A lot of it also felt like something you’d get off Chat GPT. I had to go and read the reviews mid-read because I was like surely others feel this way about this book too, but apparently not. I’m just saying, if I needed a reason to stay until tomorrow and I was given this book, I definitely would not stay. (PS. This feels like a harsh review but y’all have no idea how mad I was while reading it – I think this review is significantly tamer compared to my thoughts as I was reading)
When i read the book, i feel so warm. It feels like someone is hugging me. It’s a great book to read when you are feeling down. And if it’s too overwhelming to read all of the encouragement, you can read it one page per day.
This was really needed. I believe that some people who chose to read books back to back picks up books they need in the moment. I'm struggling with a few different situations at the moment. These situations is leading up towards my seasonal depression (which always comes around Early to Mid May).
While I know there are people who need this book moreso than I do for encouragement, this was really needed. It provided a lot of encouraging words. I underlined and highlighted so many quotes that just spoke to me. I am happy I won this because I think the Universe or God knew that I was nearing a situation I would need something like this.
Honestly such a good book, it has been on my TBR for a while and I one a copy in a giveaway that Goodreads held!
I love Jacqueline’s use of language and wording in this book, a lot of her writing really spoke to my soul and I love the way she describes feeling.
One critique I would have is that some things were very repetitive in her writing and it threw me off or brought me out of the book sometimes while reading. Otherwise it was an amazing read and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a book full of comfort and love.
sträckläste den här ikväll och blev lugnare och lugnare för varje sida. Jacqueline Whitney skriver så fint och tryggt och skulle säga att det är den finaste gåvan att köpa till någon man har i sin närhet som inte mår bra.
fin både att slå upp en sida när man behöver, och att sträckläsa de dagarna man behöver tröst och lugn ❤️🩹
Wow. I’m on a healing journey and this book told me just what I needed to hear. I expect to come back to this book many, many, times in the future. Powerful.
A bit repetitive at times, but not necessarily in a bad way. An enjoyable read packed full of lots of hope. I preferred picking it up here and there to read a couple pages versus reading it all in one sitting.
If you need to still your mind and focus on overcoming obstacles, this is the book for you. It is positive and points out how to be kinder to yourself.
This book is equal parts beautiful and gut wrenching!! It puts such hard feelings and emotions into words. I wish I could read it for the first time over and over again!
Such a good book. I like how the author create words that make you feel better. This book is suitable for those of you who need comfort and enthusiasm to live tomorrow
