It was simple yet full of golden advices and can be read as many times as we want without it being too much of a hassle. These people have only a limited time or window of opportunity before they truly give up and rather than making us wait and wait for a sign of escape (finish a whole thick book before reaching the end -point of the book), Yasmin instantly gives us the rope to pull us out from the dark hole. When people are in this state, we are racing against time. Think of it this way, people who read this book are those that feel they are drowning or lost or they are falling into a dark hole. It had to be short and beautifully direct to help people-in-need instantly.

It was indeed a short read - however this shortness served a purpose. I do understand now why this book is as compact as it is. Yes - The book and Yasmin's words did help me during my hard time. I hoped Yasmin had the answers I need and give me the consolation I was looking for and the contempt I seek. What drove me to purchase the book was due to me being in a hard place of my life and I needed some advice to get me out of this dark place. I did end up buying this book and gave it a read. I remember voicing out my disapproval of such pricing to the people around me (shoving the book to their faces to show them) and contemplating if I really should spend this much - and I ended up standing for some time at the bookstore just thinking. My first reaction to this book was disbelief and disapproval as this book is quite expensive in comparison to its small size and thinness.
