A Short Guide to a Happy Life

shortguideBut you are the only person alive who has sole custody of your life.  Your particular life.  Your entire life.  Not just your life at a desk, or your life on the bus, or in the car, or at the computer.  Not just the life of your mind, but the life of your heart.  Not just your bank account, but your soul.

This (extremely) short guide to a happy life by Anna Quindlen is a very quick read with quite a few nuggets of wisdom.  Encouraged to get a ‘real’ life that we can enjoy in addition to our obligations, we are also treated to some outstanding photos of people doing just that.  The book is so short that I’ll keep my review short as well.

Recommended for Quindlen fans and those needing a ‘Q’ author or a short non-fiction title for reading challenges.

2000, 50 pp.
