Book Reviews of Happiness: A Guide to Developing Life's Most Important Skill

Book Review: Read this book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I haven't stopped going on about how much I love this book since I first picked it up!

A friend gave it to me and I am thoroughly enjoying it. It's written in a really interesting way with lots of scientific research mixed in with Budhist wisdom.

I would heartily reccomend it. It is very thought provoking and has made me start to change some of the ways I think about things already.
