Enjoyable writing. I felt like I was talking with a friend through Nora’s essays, but I didn’t really learn much. Sort of felt like rehashed popular ideas/topics?

I loved Bad Vibes Only far more than I dreamed I would. This thoughtful and emotional (and occasionally irreverent) collection of personal essays is an instant winner. Even after just the first chapter, I knew I would enjoy this book, but it truly has it all. I laughed. I cried. I felt seen and understood.
Nora McInerny has given us something brilliant. I feel as if we are old friends—not because I share her experiences, but because I share her thoughts and feelings. And especially the sentiment of being “the saddest happy person I know (or maybe the happiest sad person I know).”
I feel as if every woman I know needs to find themselves in these pages. Why? Maybe so that we can find deeper levels on which to relate. Or maybe just so we can add a cute book to our bookshelves. It’s funny how I question the way I do things after indulging in so much of Nora’s self reflection.
But at any rate, Bad Vibes Only is absolutely one of my favorites. I know its witty title will be a conversation starter for years to come. So thank you, Nora McInerny, for helping us feel more seen and less alone.

Good light read to take my mind off the horrors of the universe, really like her humor. only thing is i’m just left wondering if she hates her husband or when they will be getting divorced because it lowkey seems like they don’t like each other that much or something, but hey what do i know 😂
