Has anyone here read Mark Manson's book "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck"? I just listened to a podcast interview with Manson. (The podcast is "ID10T with Chris Hardwick." ) Now I'm thinking about purchasing his book and his new book "Everything is Fucked: A Book About Hope".
Anybody here recommend it?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Yes, it's definitely a good book. Your in the right age range to appreciate it the most. Personally I won't by the second one, but it's mostly because at my age and all the work I've made it's less pertinent.

No, but I've read some excerpts, and some of his columns, and I'm interested. I've heard good things about it.

Nope, I have not check this one out. Now, while we are at it, I find interesting that the author of the art of not giving a fuck, expect us to actually give a fuck and buy it !! That's a paradox !!
