For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

As she revealed in her memoir, it has been one of stark contrasts—from growing up in the splendor of Holkham Hall to living in a tent in the jungle of Mustique, from traveling the world with Princess Margaret to coping with her wildly unpredictable husband Lord Glenconner. She has also survived the tragic loss of two of her sons and nursed a third son back from a coma.

Many people reach success by deliberately being their own worst critic and obsessively double-checking their work; or by pushing their feelings aside. This strategy is seductive because it does work, at least up to a certain point. The problems arise once you advance beyond school and early career stages. The higher you climb, the more complex projects and issues in your life become. Meanwhile, you may have become so good at putting your emotions aside in certain situations that it’s hard to reconnect with them. This is when the old tools no longer suffice.

In addition, Erickson shows how the external veneer of a lifestyle can create a life-giving home only when placed under the hope of the gospel.

Investigating the six lifestyle spheres that have kept her going strong for decades, you will learn how to channel your inner royal - whether at work or at the table - in this fascinating plunge into the House of Windsor’s famous fountain of youth.
Extensively researched and delightfully revelatory, it’s the story of how one strong queen can make stronger, happier, healthier subjects of us all. Long live you!

Awful narration
Content was interesting but nothing new brought to light. Narration was terrible - he has no idea how to pronounce English place/people names nor some words in common English usage ( eg cortege he pronounces "cort-a-jay"). This book would have been so much more enjoyable if narrated by an English person. His voice is also monotonous and irritating.

Insensitive FanClub Frustrations
I DNF 2/3 of my way through this book. I really wanted to get good content out of this, in honor of Queen Elizabeth II's long life and out of respect in light of her recent passing. The premise of discussing 23 aspects of her personality and habits that we might be interested in incorporating into our own lives is a good one, and could have been a valuable starting point for a holistic discussion of her career. However, this work is mortally crippled by its bad author--and when dealing with a subject so many others have also published--it's just not worth giving Bryan Kozlowski the time of day.
The work is absolutely drenching in idolatry. There is no nuance or wiggle room to discussing the Queen's choices, personality, or lifestyle habits. Everything the Queen does is ideal and anyone who differs is just plain wrong. The worship rhetoric is reminiscent of a Catholic priest invoking Jesus, and this religious level of Kozlowski's fanboy writing is nauseating.
I enjoyed the bits about the importance of play and the benefits of outdoor recreation in nature. However, I just could not stand Kozlowski's inability to see other walks of life as equal, just different from the Crown's. He is anti-Princess Diana and anti-Meghan Markle, which to a point I expected, but to be dismissive of Diana's bulimia and the racism Meghan suffered? And while I expect him to be pro-House of Windsor, it seemed contrary to that position when he makes fun of the Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip's exercise habits. This was during a section on Elizabeth's long life, stamina, and exercise, so to make fun of her husband when he lived as long as she did is in direct contrast with his own thesis. He refuses to engage with any evidence that does not perfectly align with his personal views, and by doing so, his work fails to engage with any readers that don't already agree with him whole-heartedly.
I do not make the decision to set aside a book unfinished lightly. I can count on one hand the number of times I have done so. I'm someone who revisits textbooks during holidays to finish chapters that aren't assigned during the semester, for crying out loud! But when Kozlowski scoffs at anyone who needs therapy or expresses emotions, I just could not even with this book anymore. I cannot in my good conscience recommend this to anyone.

pretty critical on princess Diana and Meghan Markle
enjoyed the in-depth thinking behind the queen of England however I found the remarks to be quite cool when speaking about Princess Diana especially when talking about the entanglement between her and her former cocaine drug addict ex-boyfriend and there are some unfavorable things said about Meghan Markle which I think are pretty unfair. But as far is it going into the mind of the queen like I said.

Not for me.
This book is well written and well read by the American narrator. A light read, but there was not much new information in this for me. The book is perhaps better suited for people who have not lived in the UK during the reign of Queen Elizabeth the second.

Story
...And What Do You Do? is a hard-hitting analysis of the royal family, exposing its extravagant use of public money and the highly dubious behaviour of some among its ranks, whilst being critical of the knee-jerk sycophancy shown by the press and politicians. Baker also considers the wider role the royals play in society, including the link with House of Lords reform, and the constitutional position of the monarch, which is important given Prince Charles’ present and intended approach.

Story
We can hardly imagine a Britain without Elizabeth II on the throne. It seems to be the job she was born for. And yet for much of her early life, the young princess did not know the role that her future would hold. She was our accidental queen. Elizabeth's determination to share in the struggles of her people marked her out from a young age.

Under the cover of being designated as private correspondence, the letters between the queen and the governor-general about the dismissal have been locked away for decades in the National Archives of Australia, and embargoed by the queen - potentially forever. In the face of this, Professor Jenny Hocking embarked on a four-year legal battle to force the Archives to release the letters. In 2015, she mounted a crowd-funded campaign, securing a stellar pro bono team that took her case all the way to the High Court of Australia.
