“Our finest hour isn’t off in the distance。 It’s the one we’re living， right here and now。 Let’s fill it with all the joy we can。”Super quick， yet thought-provoking and inspirational read！ Robin Roberts discusses her own hardships， while offering positivity and helpful ways to grow from all the experiences of life。 Her mentality is uplifting and attainable， and I’m definitely going to use some of her tips in my own life。

I won this book and had no idea who Robin Roberts was。 I dont watch tv often and definitely not the news。 However， it is one of my top favorite reads！ Uplifting and honest。 Great phrases throughout to remember during the tough times。 Robin also shares steps on keeping a positive attitude and looking towards the bright side。 My favorite part is when she speaks of her personal experiences with healh， her mother， friends and family。 I highly recommend this book。

Brighter by the Day was exactly what I needed in my life right now。 The messages that Robin Roberts pens in this book are so authentic and uplifting。 I am always impressed with how she is able to be so relatable and speak to me from the pages with words that resonate so deeply。 I don't consider myself a person that follows celebrities or public personalities。 I always find people I meet in real life to be the ones that I admire the most。 However， I have become a follower of Robin Roberts over th Brighter by the Day was exactly what I needed in my life right now。 The messages that Robin Roberts pens in this book are so authentic and uplifting。 I am always impressed with how she is able to be so relatable and speak to me from the pages with words that resonate so deeply。 I don't consider myself a person that follows celebrities or public personalities。 I always find people I meet in real life to be the ones that I admire the most。 However， I have become a follower of Robin Roberts over the last few years。 I watched her MasterClass on communication and was drawn in by her positivity， down to earth personality and genuine nature。 I then read her book Everybody's Got Something and it just reaffirmed everything I took from her MasterClass。 When I heard about Brighter by the Day， I was thrilled。 I had another chance to soak up all her brightness and authentic words。 I highly recommend Brighter by The Day for all readers。 It is a beautiful reminder of so many real moments in life and how to choose joy for yourself。 Brighter by the Day is the kind of book you want to gift to all your friends and family。 I've already been sharing with my friends many of Robin's messages that spoke to me。 I continue to be inspired by her and know that you will too。I received this book courtesy of the publisher in exchange for an honest review。 I also borrowed the audio book from our local library so I could hear Robin read the book in her own voice， which I believe， enhanced my reading of the book。 。。。more

Brighter by the Day， a short and sweet book by Robin Roberts filled with encouragement for our good days， bad days， and everything in between。 Robin shares the stories of how she got into broadcasting， the opportunities that came her way， all the ones that didn't， and how with faith she kept on trucking。 This memoir is filled with antidotes of wisdom she received growing up from her parents， as well as lessons she's learned along the way。 I loved how each chapter started with a quote。 My favorit Brighter by the Day， a short and sweet book by Robin Roberts filled with encouragement for our good days， bad days， and everything in between。 Robin shares the stories of how she got into broadcasting， the opportunities that came her way， all the ones that didn't， and how with faith she kept on trucking。 This memoir is filled with antidotes of wisdom she received growing up from her parents， as well as lessons she's learned along the way。 I loved how each chapter started with a quote。 My favorite being Chapter 13: Vulnerability is Strength， "You are braver than you believe， and stronger than you seem， and smarter than you think，" Christopher Robin says to Winnie-the-Pooh in Pooh's Grand Adventure。 Robin shares in the intro that she hopes you'll pick up this book when you need some encouragement， read a chapter in the morning or maybe at night but mostly she hopes it'll bring connection in a time when we need it most。 I wasn't too familiar with Robin before reading this and found the writing and her stories uplifting， insightful and filled with hope， even while sharing about her two cancer diagnosis's。 She says many times "make your mess your message" which I think is wonderful。 We're all going through something， why not have that bring us together rather than further apart。 Thank you GrandCentralPub for the gifted copy in exchange for a honest review。 。。。more

I’m not a big fan of self-help books， but I can truly recommend this one。I’ve watched Robin Roberts on Good Morning America for many years now， but I didn’t really know a lot about her personal life before reading this book。 I loved how vulnerable she was about the hardships she’s endured， and how she seamlessly weaved in the life lessons she’s learned along the way。I read a few chapters of this book every day for almost a week， and I looked forward to sitting down and picking it back up。 It was I’m not a big fan of self-help books， but I can truly recommend this one。I’ve watched Robin Roberts on Good Morning America for many years now， but I didn’t really know a lot about her personal life before reading this book。 I loved how vulnerable she was about the hardships she’s endured， and how she seamlessly weaved in the life lessons she’s learned along the way。I read a few chapters of this book every day for almost a week， and I looked forward to sitting down and picking it back up。 It was a great source of positivity。 I loved Robins outlook on life， and I loved that reading this book felt like I was listening to a good friend talk about her life and share her wisdom with me。 The chapters were short， and you can definitely skip around and read what you need， when you need it。 I’ll be keeping this book my by bedside for whenever I need some uplifting words。 A big thank you to Grand Central Pub for sending me the finished copy of this book！ 。。。more

Roberts and Burford have produced a light-hearted， uplifting memoir/motivational essay book。 My favorite bit was about doubting yourself。 At the beginning， Roberts says that she wants the book to feel like you are sitting down and chatting with a friend， with no judgements， being met where you are。 I do find that the book had that exact vibe。 However， I also found that my favorite parts of the book were quotes and tidbits she had pulled from other people。 Though these were integral in making the Roberts and Burford have produced a light-hearted， uplifting memoir/motivational essay book。 My favorite bit was about doubting yourself。 At the beginning， Roberts says that she wants the book to feel like you are sitting down and chatting with a friend， with no judgements， being met where you are。 I do find that the book had that exact vibe。 However， I also found that my favorite parts of the book were quotes and tidbits she had pulled from other people。 Though these were integral in making the book feel like a conversation laced with hopeful quotes， it made the whole of the book feel less profound for me。 Regardless， if you are looking for an encouraging read that has plenty of good quotes to ruminate on， and especially if you love Robin Roberts， you definitely ought to pick this one up！Thank you to Grand Central Publishing for an ARC！ 。。。more

This was such a fun breath of fresh air！ While I must admit I don’t want morning news， I loved receiving this book in the mail with the bright and fun cover！ I read the entire book in one sitting and tabbed so many things that I want to come back to when I need a little piece of advice or reminder that hard things can be overcome。 This is absolutely a book I’d gift to a friend or something who I know would love a book to thumb through when you’re looking for a little written pick-me-up。 If you’r This was such a fun breath of fresh air！ While I must admit I don’t want morning news， I loved receiving this book in the mail with the bright and fun cover！ I read the entire book in one sitting and tabbed so many things that I want to come back to when I need a little piece of advice or reminder that hard things can be overcome。 This is absolutely a book I’d gift to a friend or something who I know would love a book to thumb through when you’re looking for a little written pick-me-up。 If you’re looking for a book to read in the morning， or right before you go to bed， or during the day when you just need a moment to yourself， this book is definitely one I’d recommend！ 。。。more

I’ve been watching Robin Roberts on GMA for years！She’s my go to morning show personality。 She’s endured so much over the years from health issues to a natural disaster destroying her home state but she always finds the good。 In this book， she makes big matters seem small by encouraging the reader to be optimistic and purposeful。 My favorite saying of Robin’s is ‘make your mess your message’。 I think of this one often when feeling down and it does ignite a spark in me to turn a situation around。 I’ve been watching Robin Roberts on GMA for years！She’s my go to morning show personality。 She’s endured so much over the years from health issues to a natural disaster destroying her home state but she always finds the good。 In this book， she makes big matters seem small by encouraging the reader to be optimistic and purposeful。 My favorite saying of Robin’s is ‘make your mess your message’。 I think of this one often when feeling down and it does ignite a spark in me to turn a situation around。 This book is divided into 3 sections: The Joy Mindset， Positive on Purpose & Stronger Than You Know。 The chapters are short and you can skip around and read what you need when you need it。 I will return to this book for a quick mood adjustment！ Thank you to Grand Central Publishing for granting my request for my gifted copy 。。。more
