Sinossi
36 anni, sorridente e solare, un ottimo lavoro come giornalista freelance, una famiglia e pochi, buoni, amici che le vogliono bene. Ecco, questa è Marianne Power. Peccato che lei non si veda così e che abbia un debole per i superalcolici, Netflix e i libri self-help. Una domenica al risveglio da un'allegra sbornia del sabato sera, Marianne si guarda intorno: la camera è in disordine, ci sono abiti e bicchieri ovunque, è andata a letto vestita e non si è nemmeno struccata. Single da anni, sempre in lotta con la bilancia e con i suoi capelli, vive in affitto in un seminterrato e ha il conto perennemente in rosso; che disastro... Com'è possibile che tutti quei libri self-help che ha lì sullo scaffale, letti e riletti e sottolineati, non abbiano avuto alcun effetto sulla sua vita? E che cosa succederebbe se mettesse davvero in pratica quello che dicono? E quindi ecco la soluzione: 12 libri self-help e un anno di tempo per cancellare qualsiasi problema e diventare Perfetta.

Recensioni
3.75 stars In an odd way, this memoir reminded me of a Sophie Kinsella novel — in a good way. Marianne Power recounts her year of living according to a different self help book each month. Each book contains a different set of instructions: do one thing that scares you every day, get a handle on your Leggi tutto
This book attempts to answer an important question (packing lots of humorous anecdotes along the way) – can the techniques outlined in popular & mainstream self-help literature change your life for the better? Marianne Power was not doing badly for herself – she had a decent career already. Yet she Leggi tutto
This book was given to me through a giveaway in exchange for an honest review... All I’m going to say is....I am seriously surprised that I was able to make it through to the end of this book. The concept was interesting, but way to repetitive and quite boring.
I loved this book. I’m not a self help reader but this really struck a chord with me and my generations’ hopeless pursuit of perfection. Laugh and cried throughout but what a great read.
Are you someone who likes self-help books?Or do you prefer to stay away from them as far as possible?Either way, this book could appeal to you. At the age of 36 Marianne, a single English journalist of Irish descent, is not happy with her life which often consists of Netflix-marathons, hangovers, deb Leggi tutto
I really enjoyed reading this book, way more than I thought I would. The reason I bought it in the first place was because of my severe dislike of self-help, life-coaching books. I've said this many times in the past, but I find self-help books useless, and just a marketing tactic to for people to m Leggi tutto
Dit boek is zo eerlijk, de schrijfster stelt zich zo kwetsbaar op, dat ik voortdurend moest lachen, huilen, of allebei. Het is leerzaam, want ze bespreekt dingen die ieder mens een keer ervaart. Het is handig, want je leest, naast dit boek, ook 12 andere zelfhulpboeken + of het werkt. Ik bewonder Maria Leggi tutto
Прехвърлих две книги от 2021 г., които не успях да завърша до края на декември, и ето и първата прочетена от тях. „Помощ!“ от Мариан Пауър никога нямаше да попадне в полезрението ми заради вида, в който е в българския си книжен вариант. Всички знаем израза „Не съди за книгата по корицата“, но тук про Leggi tutto
