Publisher's Synopsis
"Equal parts touching and hilarious, Power's account of the year she spent follow-ing the tenets of self-help books will make you feel better about your own flawed life."—People An instant international bestseller, and featured on the Today Show and NPR, journalist Marianne Power's Help Me! is her hilarious, thought-provoking, and unfailingly honest account of her year-long, often madcap, quest to find out if self-help books really can change your life. With humor, audacity, and disarming candor, Power plumbs the trials and tests of being a modern woman in a "have it all" culture, and what it really means to be our very best selves. "A winner. Bridget Jones meets Buddha in this plucky, heartwarming, comical debut memoir." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "You'll laugh. You'll cry. You might even achieve the level of self-acceptance Power reaches by the end."—Refinery 29.
