DNF @ about 50%. She really lost me when she said no one likes slideshows... I don't need that kinda attitude in my life.

This is a very easy to read book.
I have been particularly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and it is very important for me to keep reading to keep my mind off things. Easy to read books help.
I love books which have charts and pictures and abstract art. This one had it in spades.
It is about living in chronic pain but also about life in general. There are many things that resonated with me and as someone who has been suffering from pain from three months (hopefully it will go away soon), I can already resonate with so many things that the author mentioned.
My favourite was, of course, about chaos and how small things can lead to such big outcomes. It is important to understand that life can be meaningful with everything going wrong as well.
I would recommend this to everyone.
I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley. It doesn't impact my opinion at all.

I'm a sucker for things like infographics, so the cover on this really caught my eye. And it's such a lovely small book that illustrates the intersection of so many pieces of chronic illness, the ups and downs and many different treatments, etc., but also grief where several of the longer prose pieces talk about her father. I haven't read her first book but will definitely pick that one up.

This book is incredibly helpful for me when understanding my fears and anxieties. I ruminate, catastrophize, and worry about so many things even though not much in my life seems to be changing. It is not a “traditional” book, but is intended to exist for consistent use. I will be coming back to it many times. The drawings are so beautiful, but also cute. Michelle Rial did an outstanding job on creating this book. Hopefully, this will enhance my aspirations of having a future in psychology. 🥰🥰🥰

This book just didn't resonate with me like the author's first book did. I loved [b:Am I Overthinking This?: Over-answering life's questions in 101 charts|43885852|Am I Overthinking This?
