so-soThis a book that can be read quite fast. The content is quite simple but I do believe it makes the reader think about his life situation especially talking about happiness. Definitely recommend it.
pickI thought this quirky little book was a real charmer. Hector takes a trip around the world to learn what makes people happy, and to try and find a secret to happiness. #HappyInTheTitle #magnificentmarch

pickI LOVED the Dan Brown Origins book next up is this one :)
pickI really enjoyed this book. The story itself was well written and very easy to get into. I found the majority of the characters very loveable, but of course Hector was my favourite. Excited to hear that there's more in the series, and now I can't wait to read the next one. I also have high hopes for the movie, and I HAVE to see it. 💗
Enjoying a little reading on my lunch break. 💗
On top of the 47 (😳😳😳) books I took out from the library today, I also bought these three for 99cents a piece! All three were on my TBR, and that's a price I simply couldn't pass up. #LitsypartyofOne
When a book you found pretty interesting finally goes on Netflix for your country (Perú) #yasss #September #BookToMovie
I was on the fence about this book before with Hector's female characters and pursuits but this is probably the final straw. How dare the character, Hector, a psychiatrist, is asked to medically assist a woman on a plane and learns how she had a tumor removed from her brain and is in terrible pain from a headache and he just thinks about IS HOW SHE USED TO BE PRETTY AND MUST MISS THE ATTENTION OF MEN?!? I. can't.
so-soNot sure how I feel about this one...it was kind of The Alchemist meets The Good Body, but in a weirdly instructional sort of way. Except the sort of way where I am now, at the end, not too confident in the plan.
(1/2) One day they take you to the top of a very steep ski slope and tell you you'll have great fun if you just follow them. In fact they've only taken you up there because they are excellent skiers and love skiing down very steep slopes...
so-soIt is a really nice story, very easy to read and quite entertaining. I share the opinion of other reviews I've read that it was weird to mix very important and interesting life lessons with the author's love life which had little connection with the message he intended to give throughout the book.
Searching for Happiness on a SundayğŸ€ğŸŒ»!
Today I chose to read real book vs Kindle!
I've put aside this book for a couple years just because I didnt get it back them. Taking it again a few years older it gives you another perspective. Dont you think?
A quick chapter and iced coffee before heading out to Nephew's birthday party. Still trying to decide if I'm enjoying this.
In WA state for work and discovered Half Price Books!! 😠Added these to my TBR and picked up a fun bag and bookmark too!
pickThis is a book about a psychiatrist named Hector who goes on a search to find out what makes people happy. It's a short read, I read it in one sitting. It was an enjoyable read.
What is your way of finding happiness? 😊
pickFirst of all, I want to thank everyone for being so kind and for suggesting many interesting books in my previous post. Litsy is the BEST. â¤ï¸
This is @JaimitaPR 's pick. I chose it because Hector was a psychiatrist and I'm feeling a bit unhappy lately. The writing is simplified as if meant for children but, surely, children wouldn't be searching for happiness. The list reminded me a little of Bhuddism. It helped me recover and I'm glad I read it.
Simple story with significant message. Author enlightens the meaning of happiness to random ppl through Hector's journey. Perfect for light reading
panApparently Hector just needs to get busy with various women he meets in his travels to find true happiness - girlfriend be damned!
Such a bland, simple book that really goes nowhere and has an equally dull protagonist. There's not much here to latch on to and I simply shrugged with indifference.
