Mel (Daily Prophecy)'s Reviews > You Are a Badass®: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life

How disappointing.. I don't read many non-fiction books, because I love my fantasy stories, but every once in a while I like to try something else.

"You are a Badass" sounded like a great book for me and I'm sad it didn't work out. Jen repeats a lot of things I already know without really motivating me. Honestly, these type of books make me feel worse about myself instead, haha. It's a lot of 'if you WANT something, you can get it' and 'Love yourself no matter what and things will work out.' I don't think that's the way to approach something.

I also don't like how she talked about depression and made it sound like this is something you can easily change with happy thoughts. I don't suffer from depressions, but I can imagine that it's hurtful for people who do to read about it that way.

Yeah.. Not for me.
