A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

Jim's Review
Jim normally gives many f*cks — about books, about burrowing, about proper soil moisture. But Manson makes a compelling case for being more selective with your f*cks. It's refreshingly blunt compared to the usual "think positive!" self-help drivel. The philosophy is solid even if the edgy tone wears thin by the end. Four worms for this anti-self-help self-help book. Now if you'll excuse me, Jim has some not-caring to do.
