Great cover on this one. It makes great use of graphics. It's colorful and eye catching and has some unique typogrpahy.
A great little self-help book aimed towards the younger crowd (14-18) full of activities, exercises, advice, prompts, crafts, playlists, and recipes that will help you relax and rejuvenate. It's laid out with fun colorful graphics, images, and fonts that make it visually pleasing as well as enjoyable to read.
I enjoyed this one a lot. Yes, this is geared more towards teenagers, but there was still a lot of good info that as an adult I can work into my everyday life. So don't let the age thing deter you from giving this one a look see.

I didn't realize this book was meant for teens until about halfway in when the advice in one section was very specific to someone on a high school schedule. Definitely some nice ideas in here. The big disappointment was the illustrations, featuring people with exactly 1 body type, which incidentally is the same 1 body type represented in the photos too (hint: it's the same shape as the numeral 1!)

I received a free ecopy of the book from the Publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I really enjoyed this one. It's not the kind of book that you can read in one sitting so it took me a lot more days. But, I'm glad that I read this. It has a lot of great tips on how to deal with stress, depression and anxiety. It has recipes, playlists, exercises and all different kinds of fun activities. I also liked the format which made the book more interesting to read.
If you're someone who suffers from stress and anxiety, then I really recommend it. Of course, it won't treat it but it will help you organise and understand how to gain a control of your own life. I can say it because it helped me too!

I enjoyed flipping through the colorful pages, lists, and various tips. Great resource for middle school & young adults.

Interesting information, useful tips and cool projects. I especially liked the challenges and the recipes, I have to try them someday. And I adored the lovely design. While I think the book, in general, is interesting, I already knew/practice some of the things mentioned, and that's why this might be more recommendable for a younger audience.

I received an uncorrected proof of this title at #alaac2017 . Great tips, but was surprised to see that this was aimed at teenagers instead of adults. Still, a great book, but it wasn't clear from the cover. I also wish that a more diverse group of young adults were illustrated. I saw images of young men, but few people of color.
