Books on Sale: Furiously Happy by Jenny Lawson & More

RECOMMENDED: Furiously Happy by Jenny Lawson is $2.99 at Amazon! This sale might expire soon. Elyse loved this book and how it helped her deal with chronic pain. She gave it an A:

Furiously Happy is a rare book, a combination of ridiculous humor and poignant reflection. I think anyone who has suffered from a stigmatized illness will identify with Lawson’s honest, sometimes heartbreaking, description of her own pain. It’s still an uplifting book though, and that’s important. Lawson believes in celebrating small victories and quiet bravery. I get that.

Furiously Happy by Jenny Lawson

Furiously Happy

I’ve been a fan of Jenny Lawson’s blog The Bloggess for a long time–she’s a truly funny writer who posts stories about her crazy childhood, her crazy adulthood, and balances them all with reflections on mental illness.
