Even though the copyright of this book is 2002, it is still very current and useful to today's life. I loved the often tongue-in-cheek humor. It was definitely a self-help and a "feel good" book. It was a nice break from some of the dramatic longer books I have been reading. It would still make a great gift. I plan to pass this on to my daughter who is nearly 30 years old. Enjoy! I only wish the website was still current. ( )

I was a bit wary of picking up this book - I used to get quite a lot of Daily Candy subscriptions, but ended up cancelling them all as they just seemed to scream 'buy more stuff you really don't need' and I didn't need that temptation.
But the book was just as pretty as the emails - as with the online version, the best thing about the book is the lovely illustrations - so I started reading. And was pleasantly surprised. This is not a book about buying things (not that there is anything wrong with that). Rather, it is a book that deals with leading an interesting life, with some rather deep and meaningful ideas hiding amongst the humour and candy-floss lightness.
A fun read that provided some inspiration, you could do a lot worse than spend an afternoon with a copy of this book. ( )
