'I love it! Hilarious and thought-provoking!' - Fearne Cotton
'A sweet sharp read' - Jessie Burton
'A laugh-out-loud funny book.' - Lucy Diamond

Marianne Power was stuck in a rut. Then one day she wondered: could self-help books help her find the elusive perfect life?

She decided to test one book a month for a year, following their advice to the letter. What would happen if she followed the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People? Really felt The Power of Now? Could she unearth The Secret to making her dreams come true?

What begins as a clever experiment becomes an achingly poignant story. Because self-help can change your life – but not necessarily for the better . . .

Help Me! is an irresistibly funny and incredibly moving audiobook about a wild and ultimately redemptive journey that will resonate with anyone who’s ever dreamed of finding happiness.

Perfect for listeners who enjoyed Everything I know About Love by Dolly Alderton, Mad Girl by Bryony Gordon and Reasons to Stay Alive by Matt Haig.

I love it! Hilarious and thought-provoking! Love! (Fearne Cotton)
A laugh-out-loud funny book that also manages to be thought-provoking, perceptive and devastatingly honest. I loved it. (Lucy Diamond)
A sweet sharp read, and the last chapter made me cry . . . it’s perfect (Jessie Burton, author of The Miniaturist)
Marianne’s writing makes me smile and has moved me to tears more than once. She combines a journalist’s no-nonsense investigative skills with a tenderness and honesty that sets her apart (Erin Kelly, author of He Said/She Said)
Couldn't put this book down – Marianne's honesty and wit shone through . . . a hugely enjoyable, fantastic read. (Poorna Bell, author of Chase the Rainbow)
Sublime and ridiculous . . . Britain’s answer to Sarah Knight, with Amy Schumer’s naked hilarity and Matt Haig’s soul-deep profundity chucked in. (Catherine Gray, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober)
Wonderful. I’ve laughed and cried my way through it’s pages . . . I’d highly recommend this book . . . It’s a wonderfully refreshing approach. It’s worth picking up just for Marianne’s Mum’s sassy one liners alone. Give it a try! (Keegan Hirst (on Instagram))
Sparkling . . . a laugh-out-loud odyssey
Marianne Power is a delightful companion and one who (putting all natural misanthropy aside) acts a powerful reminder that the traditional ways of denigrating or demanding too much of ourselves ain’t going to get us anywhere . . . excellent
Funny and fearless, I loved Help Me! almost as much as I loved Marianne’s mum who was always on hand with some no-nonsense advice and really needs to write her own self-help book. (Sarra Manning)
What starts out as a simple idea for a journalist looking to try something quirky (live your life by a different self-help book every month for a year) rapidly changes into something far more real and worthwhile as she explores just exactly what is wrong with her life and whether any of it can help her! Super stuff. (Rick O'Shea)
It is a charming introduction to the world of self-help and a good gift for any sucker addicted to self-improvement.
London-based journalist Power chronicles the harrowing, often side-splitting adventures she embarked on while pursuing happiness and inner peace . . . Throughout this consistently entertaining book, she writes with unflinching honesty - and bald hilarity, especially as she encountered deadpan reality checks from her mother, sisters, and skeptical friends—about the throes of facing her fears, tackling money issues, living in the present, opening herself up to rejection, and getting over her hang-ups with men . . . A winner. Bridget Jones meets Buddha in this plucky, heartwarming, comical debut memoir.

I loved this. I started out thinking it would be a light hearted read and a bit of a laugh. it was, initially, but then morphed into something a bit different. Marianne's journey is revealing and riveting. My advice is to forget all the self help books and just read this! She also narrated her boom brilliantly.

Just brilliant!

What a great book, so true to life. I listen or read a self help book, then digest what it says for 5 minutes! And it's onto the next one, but Marianne tests a book a month, putting them in to practice. She shows you how brave you can be and the ups and downs of self help books and the pitfalls of trusting too much in the universe without a back up plan! But prooves after all, happiness is possible when you have the love of your friends and family around you.

Self Help in a story

As a therapist who has read many of these books, I did enjoy a lot of aspects of the book however found myself getting very annoyed at her victim mentality! I think that's more the therapist in me however who could spot what the real issue was about! I did on the whole however find the book engaging and funny and if it is a true story, think her friends deserve a medal for putting up with her during that year :)

Engaging

Really enjoyed this book. It was very entertaining and also great to have the knowledge from experiences passed on as tried and tested by the author. A life learning read! Thanks for the heads up.
