Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

I read Unraveling: What I Learned About Life While Shearing Sheep, Dyeing Wool, and Making the World's Ugliest Sweater. Shelved as 155.937 at my local library. ★★★★

Eightysomethings: A Practical Guide to Letting Go, Aging Well, and Finding Unexpected Happiness

I read The Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck by Mark Manson

I left it realizing that the reason I'm less stressed and miserable than other people I know is.....I don't give a F*ck about a lot of the things they give a f*ck about about. Like, I don't care what your opinion is my clothes, my purple/burgundy hair, or my piercing, or that you think only losers read as much as I do, so I don't stress over any of those things. I have 2-3 things I truly care about and they are the only things that are allowed to cause me stress or make me unhappy when things hit bumps.

Highly recommended

I read Witchcraft: A History in Thirteen Trials by Marion Gibson - 11/14/24.
