Mildly Humorous

I hate my hair so when I saw a book with the title: "I Love My Hair" how could I resist? This book is filled with tongue-in-cheek humor that will make you smile. I didn't laugh out loud but I did think this book was mildly funny in a Bridget Jones kind of way. On each left-hand page there is an affirmation (Everything you say is fascinating) and on the right-hand page there is an exercise (Write down three things that you know you do well). The entire book is a dose of positive thinking in a creative way. The entry on feeding the ego was a little strange. I doubt anyone would go around asking if they are liked. The idea of creating your own universe with glow-in-the-dark planets and stars is at least possible and fun. There are some good ideas for how to avoid road rage and some diet advice that could be taken seriously for maybe a week (eat all your food raw). The idea I liked the most was the anonymous letter you write to someone who is being rude to you. They advise sending it from a different town so it might take a bit of planning. ~The Rebecca Review

Are you ready for a little fun?!?

Forget Dr. Phil, if you truly are down-in-the-dumps what you need is a good laugh. And this little book delivers!!! I don't know who the ladies who wrote 'I love my hair!' are, but they sure know how to put a smile on your face. My girlfriends and I sat around all night reading the affirmations & exercises out loud to each other until we were falling out of our chairs laughing. Hadn't had that much fun in a while...definitely a recommended read & gift!

Real life problems with witty and smart solutions

I have another book by these authors, so when I saw this I bought it, and my friends at work and I have been laughing at it every day since. It's true what it says- it makes you feel better- it's total comic relief and smart & helpful at the same time like no other book I've seen. It's not just one of those other books that has stupid observations and really says nothing- it really addresses the need/problem you might have and provides a solution- even if it's tongue-in-cheek. This is great for an uplifting and fun gift, or even to keep at home or on your desk for a good boost during the dull work day- try it, you'll definitely " really feel better!"
