Bright-Sided

I REALLY liked this book. It sums up nicely all the things I hate about the positive-thinking push, from the implication that if you can't “manifest” it then you must not be trying hard enough, to the tendency to overlook obvious warnings signs. Oh, and the “no complaining” rule which never made any sense to me, seeing and discussing problems is how you find solutions. I honestly can't say enough, if you ever wanted to understand me, go read this (and yes, power through her grumpiness about cancer-culture, it's not her best chapter but the rest of the book is better).
ALSO, goes into the history of the movement, where it came from and how it got there, along with pitfalls along the way.
