A Maiden…
Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.
Despite its title, Mark Manson’s self-help guide is an upbeat read. In the same casually sweary tone he used in his megahit, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, the blogger and life coach channels both common sense and scientific research to argue that hopelessness is bad for us. Fueling not just personal anxiety and depression, our chronic lack of hope is also a major factor in the seething anger that plagues modern society. Manson challenges us to nurture hope by identifying the ideas, activities, and relationships that give our lives meaning. That’s an inspiring—and necessary—message, goddamnit.
