A Short Guide to a Happy Life Audiobook

" Good message, well written, and a nice edition. "

" A feel-good book, and pretty short too! However, it didn't really made me change my life! "

" I don't own this book but at least once a year I try to read it in a bookstore. Concise and honest, it accomplishes what "Tuesdays with Morrie" was attempting. "

" Quick read...you know all that she says but it's a pleasant reminder. "

" A short, very quick read, but one that will resonate with you...very thought provoking! I love the photographs she included, too! This is one I think I need to purchase and reread over and over! "

" 7 - This is a great book to read and re-read when you are going through a hard time. "

" Good common sense. "

" I read this book because it was available on my Kindle through the library and Real Simple Magazine recommended it. It was super short. Once I was barely getting into it, it was over. Now, just a couple days later, I can't remember anything worthwhile about it. I guess it wasn't that memorable or important. "

" Get ready everyone - you are getting this for Christmas this year. "

" More like a long birthday card than a book. Lots of feel good photos. I guess I was hoping for more than 'life's short- carpe diem' but you can't argue with that! "

" I love Anna Quindlen and will miss her column in Newsweek. This is a quick read and an uplifting one. "

" A really quick read, but great. I will look for more of her books--this book had some great thoughts and ideas--totally enjoyed it. "

" A very short book that can be read and reread in one sitting. It's a reminder to love this journey we're on, to smell the roses, to give something back. "

" I enjoy reading these kind of poetically-written reminders to take time to smell the proverbial roses. this is a cutey little book with some sweet photos to make you smile while you're flipping through it. "

" Gentle reminder to live life! Would make for a nice gift book. "

" There is nothing earth-shattering in this little book, but it was a nice perk-me-up sort of read. Also, it was short - I think I finished it in a one-sitting. "

" A quick read that puts life in perspective, succinctly. "

" More like three and a half stars......and (too) super short "

" Very good. Don't take life for granted enjoy each moment! "

" 30 minute read or less. Just a nice reality check to count our blessings. "

" Love Anna Quindlen. She's right on with this book--a quick (10 pgs.!) read to remember what's important in life. "

" A short reaffirmation of all that's good (or should be good) in life. Worth a read. "

" Loved this book. So darn adorable! "

" It took me all of 15 minutes to read this book, however the messages inside are worth a great deal more than that 15 minutes might suggest. It is just a lovely read (with lovely pictures). "

" Just one essay, lots of pictures in a short book with big margins. It felt generic compared to some of her other writing. A couple nice thoughts, but nothing truly memorable to me. "

" I liked the pictures, but felt the book lacking in it's writing. Yes, life is simple, but it is definitely meatier. "

" Talk about Short. Short and to the point. Great quick read. Uplifting. Makes you think about what you already know, but don't do. "

" Very short book with some good thoughts about how we burden ourselves with expectations instead of being our true selves. "

" Should be required reading for all high-achieving young women. "

" This is a quick and entertaining read about not trying to be perfect all the time! "

" Read it in five minutes. Remember it forever. "

" Ahem...I'm just sayin'...I'm a recovering perfectionist. Been through the 13 Step Program (Note...12 would have been a perfect number! See how I've progressed!) "

" Quite a sweet little book. I adore the black and white pictures throughout and the message is a good one to think over. "

" A wonderful, quick read. I love Anna Quindlen's concise prose. "

" A little book of great wisdom which I need to add to my library. "WELL BEHAVED WOMEN DON"T MAKE HISTORY". "

" Basically a commencement address--but Quindlen is spot on as always. This was a good little pep talk to start the new year, get my head in order and set out to be my best self (Ok, that's Oprah, but it's all the same.) "

" Reads like a college graduation speech: dare to do your own thing. "

" I loved this little book full of wisdom. "

" I have a signed copy of this book - a gift from Brent a few years ago and one of my favorite all-time gifts. :) "

" A short 48 page book that I did not find enlightening or inspiring...or whatever it was supposed to do for me. It sounded like a high school graduation speech. "

" A quick read reminding you it is not being perfect that is important but to strive to be the person you want to be. "

" A case for NOT being perfect. Insightful, quick read and well worth the message. "
