Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Success Or Suicide?
Wayde Greer · 2021
62/100
👎 Skip It
Greer writes with genuine courage about his mental health collapse and the road back, and readers who've faced similar crises describe real comfort in these pages. The problem is reach: without broad critical coverage, it's hard to know how the advice holds up against better-resourced books on the same shelf. If you or someone you love is in a dark place and drawn to entrepreneurship narratives, this is worth considering — but it's a specialist find, not a wide recommendation.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: suicidal ideation and crisis discussed in detail — requires mature reader discretion. We still scored it 62; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
