I love the idea of this book.

Seriously lacking Happy over here. I'd love a copy to snuggle up with.

I could do with this book in my life!

my child hasn't read this one just yet

The perfect book for anybody looking for a bit of inspiration or help along their personal journey. The illustrations gives it a gorgeous personal touch and the small tasks throughout the book really get the reader involved and focused on what they want to achieve by the end of the book. Fearne you're amazing.

This book is full of great advice to bring more 'happy' into our busy lives, I loved the hand drawn illustrations throughout this book and it's very easy to just pick up and put down many times

I felt this book was a bit patronising and condescending. Maybe I'm just one of these people who think you make your own happy and your own luck. I got half way through it and didn't finish it. Sorry.

I expected this to be a bit preachy, but was actually very practical and realistic. Not the biggest fan of Fearne Cotton, but actually liked this

Very realisitic and good advice!

I was given this one last week and I'm a big Fearne fan so knew I would like it and this one is a great read! Definitely recommend! Its an easy read and very calming. I've been reading bits and pieces over the last week and it does help you find the joy in every day!

had this from the library, and has lots of useful tips, which I will be trying to implement

This books contain useful advice and very good tips .

I don't think that the book tells us anything new. However I thought that it was a good way to remind ourselves and reignite interest in looking after our spiritual and mental well being.

This is full of great advice. Great read

Such an incredible book. So easy to read and I love the little exercises and drawings/paintings. So lovely to hear someone in the public eye speak so honestly about there own mental health. What an inspiring and down to earth lady Fearne is!

I haven't read it yet, but one to put on my 'must read' list.

This is well presented and very honest account from Fearne, however although I found it interesting and full of advice it is not for me in terms of returning to for help and inspiration.

she gives some good advice, it is honest and after reading this book, I am thinking 'outside the box' and finding my spiritual self.

some good tips but i can't see this reaching out to a lot of people.

sounds like a lovely book

Sounds like I need this book

It's dreadful. I really don't know why she felt the need to bring it out other than making a quick buck.

I loved the happiness project by Gretchen Rubin, Hopefully this is similar

I've always been a fan of Fearne Cotton so as soon as this had come out, I jumped at the opportunity to read it. I read this book in a few days on my commute to work, It was a very easy read and make me feel significantly better about myself every time I read a small section. Very positive and amazing advice/tips throughout, I can't fault it. Would definitely recommend to other people.

I was sceptical that I'd like this book to be honest, as I've never been a huge Fearne fan. But she completely changed my mind - it was a great read and there were so many elements I felt I could apply to my daily life.

By talking about mental health she's paving the way for others to do so, reducing the stigma surrounding it and bringing the issue to the forefront of people minds.

I would reccomend this book to both Fearne lovers and on-the-fencers alike. It's an easy, enriching read from someone who is obviously very intelligent and likeable.
