Big thank you to Grand Central Publishing for my gifted copy！I really don’t read a lot of non-fiction （even though I should） and I’m even more unfamiliar with self-help books。 Because of this， I was a little nervous that I wouldn’t relate to the content or that the subject matter would be slow。 I’m happy to say that I enjoyed this one and found it to be so inspirational！ There were so many sections where I had to stop for a second just to soak in the message that the author was trying to send ho Big thank you to Grand Central Publishing for my gifted copy！I really don’t read a lot of non-fiction （even though I should） and I’m even more unfamiliar with self-help books。 Because of this， I was a little nervous that I wouldn’t relate to the content or that the subject matter would be slow。 I’m happy to say that I enjoyed this one and found it to be so inspirational！ There were so many sections where I had to stop for a second just to soak in the message that the author was trying to send home。 I absolutely loved all the anecdotes from the author’s personal life。 Her relationship with her mother was expressed in such a beautiful way and it made me a bit emotional。 I just wanted to sit down and have a nice cozy chat with my mama。 （Lucky for me， we get to do that every Saturday when my parents come to visit！）There are various references to God and faith throughout the book。 This isn’t a bad thing of course， but I wanted to make that known because some people prefer that and others aren’t as comfortable with it。 As someone who was raised in a Christian home， they were words of comfort for me。I thought this was such a beautiful book by Robin Roberts and I’m so grateful that I was given the opportunity to read it。 This one comes out at the end of the month！ 。。。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

When asked why I wanted to read an early galley of BRIGHTER BY THE DAY by Robin Roberts - her new book: a guide to instilling hope and optimism into readers’ lives， infusing their days with positivity and encouragement - I knew it was a book meant for me。 I’m currently on my fifth month of bed rest， and my mental health is not the greatest， so I’m looking for positivity anywhere I can get it。 I thought Roberts’ book might be cute， but I did not expect to find so much joy as I did。 Filled with gr When asked why I wanted to read an early galley of BRIGHTER BY THE DAY by Robin Roberts - her new book: a guide to instilling hope and optimism into readers’ lives， infusing their days with positivity and encouragement - I knew it was a book meant for me。 I’m currently on my fifth month of bed rest， and my mental health is not the greatest， so I’m looking for positivity anywhere I can get it。 I thought Roberts’ book might be cute， but I did not expect to find so much joy as I did。 Filled with grace， wisdom， and personal anecdotes， I loved taking my time reading this little book。 Okay， I will be the first to tell you I am not a morning person - like I am the biggest grump in the morning you will ever meet， all my encounters with Robin Roberts have never happened live watching GMA because I’m never awake for it。 I’ve watched lots of clips after the fact， and I love her personality， which shines so fully in BRIGHTER BY THE DAY。 If you have ever watched a Roberts on screen， you see how much she cares， and that passion is imbued tenfold into the pages of this book。 In each chapter， Roberts gives real-life experiences and isn’t afraid to get personal - allowing the reader to know she is human。 She also poses questions to make you think and then answers them for herself。 I love this aspect because you can choose to answer them in your mind or expand the process and make it a journaling activity， which I did with a few！ This book brought me joy and positivity when I really needed it。 It’s small but mighty。 I see myself picking it up when I need a reminder that I can get through the day。 I think we all could use a reminder like that， don’t you？BRIGHTER BY THE DAY is out 3/29Thanks Grand Central Publishing for the gifted book！Content Warnings: cancer， familial death 。。。more
