Secondly, at the start it says "Within these pages you’ll hear me talk about what depression feels like for me", this isn't true. Ferne is a great advocate of talking to good friends about how you’re feeling but what she fails to consider is that we’re not all so lucky to have people who will listen to us when we need it.

I’m think most people would benefit from reading this book especially if sometimes being happy is the hardest thing in the world. The author first goes through her own period of depression, before moving on to show how she has become more balanced in her work and family lives.I can see how this would be useful for some people, and having a book like this written by a popular figure certainly brings it to the masses, but I felt like it lacked scientific information and regurgitated a watered down version of therapy. But in saying all the above, if this book brings solace or encourages someone to change something for the better, who am I to dismiss it.

It is written simply and in a straightforward way but it still takes some time to go through as there are quite a lot of thinking points to consider.

I'm a true introvert and never been one to run with the crowd so although I had vaguely heard of Fearne Cotton I don't follow social media or adhere to the cult of celebrity. It's hard to say anything negative when someone speaks about their own personal journey, their truth and the things they have found along the way which have helped them. Maybe following each advice would help me being a bit happier and would make readers less vulnerable to depression - if they surround themselves by a support network and build in habits that may prevent the illness from settling in.Let me explain 🙈 at that time I was about 14/15 and almost certain that I was going to marry Danny from Mcfly (I mean why not right? The first few chapters are hard as it speaks of Fearnes own dark times and in a way it feels abit daunting to read when it brings up memories of your own as you nod along saying yep and agreeing to parts. I've been waiting a while to read this book and I'm glad I finally picked it up as it's such a positive, intelligent read. Drawing on her own experiences and including expert advice, HAPPY offers practical ways of finding joy each and every day.

I think the whole book should be re-marketed as "healthy living tips" and leave aside the whole "fighting against depression" side, because there is no way anyone feeling severely depressed will find that this book will help them through it.The brand was created from her first book released in 2017, Happy, which was a Sunday Times Bestseller and a silver Nielsen Bestseller.

If I ever have to read how grateful she is for having kids and her career and husband and family I will throw up.In fact I suppose, if I'm completely honest, it made me dither a bit about whether to invest in the books. The pretty cover invites you to read, but truthfully the book itself lacks substance - while there were a few pages that really spoke to me, as a whole, there was nothing new in this book in terms of advice. I'm also getting tired of people going on about the stigma of talking about depression or mental illness. I love the layout of the book and how it focuses on different parts of your life / body / mind, which all inevitably come together to create happiness.
