Read yourself happy

Daisy Buchanan

£16.99

When Daisy Buchanan first felt worry consume her as a child, she turned to the wonder of reading. Somehow, as a grown-up (or a person trying to be one) she turned to food, alcohol and online shopping instead, but these momentary highs made her feel lower still. Eventually diagnosed with General Anxiety Disorder, she returned to reading and soon discovered that losing herself in a good book helped her find so much more: her confidence through characters, her sexuality through racy romps and more and more peace with every page. In ‘Read Yourself Happy’, Daisy combines her own journey, the wisdom of the characters, writers and literary worlds she has loved and the advice of experts to help you form one of the healthiest habits you already have at your fingertips.
