A Bit Bookish

The Atlas of Happiness: The Global Secrets of How to Be Happy by Helen Russell

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I really enjoyed this book so very much. It was an interesting look into the concept of happiness around the globe. After explaining each country's special concept of happiness (Ireland/Craic, Greece/Meraki, India/Jugaad) etc., she then gives you a few tips on how you can incorporate that concept into your own life. As she states, optimism isn't frivolous it is necessary and nowhere is perfect...every country has faults. But simple ideas can have a huge impact sometimes and this was a funny and thoughtful read.
