My Thoughts

Rating: ★★★★☆

I’ve been on a kick of self-help books for mental health, so I was excited when LitPR reached out to me on Twitter about this book tour. This book is targeted more toward young adults, as well, so it was more helpful to me than some of the others that I’ve read. However, I think it would be just as helpful to adults as well!

I think my favorite thing about this book is how clear the writing was. Read used terms that were easy to understand rather than complicated terms that would’ve been lost on me. The exercises included were very helpful, and I can see myself referring to this book a lot in the future!

Disclaimer: I was provided a complimentary copy via LitPR in exchange for an honest review.
