Name:  The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck! Author: Mark Manson Published by: Harper Collins Number of pages: 210 Genre: Self-Help Honestly, I bought this book after seeing it on my sister's Instagram story and I happen to ask her for her review on it. She said that never has she laughed so hard while reading a book which is under the genre of "self-help". The very next moment, I was on Amazon, placing an order of this book! As soon as the order was delivered, I couldn't help but open it and start reading, almost immediately. The book is goddamn amazing! It is not like other books under this genre and it instantly connects with the reader and you realize, "Damn! This is so me!" The instances given in the book are so amazing and realistic.

The story is fun to read with the illustrations on most of the pages and a perfect quick read from the usual books; it’s refreshing and creative. Although, the book is banned in a few states, due to the fact that the animals’ talk among themselves and also to a human kid – Fern, it is considered to be as inappropriate, I found the plot of the story exact opposite; artistic and simple. The story has a simple teaching, friendship! It is very well depicted between Fern and Wilbur, and between Wi...
