Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
What Makes You Happy?
Fiona Robards · 2015
72/100
👍 Worth It
Fiona Robards covers a lot of ground in one practical package — ten life areas, real exercises, reflective questions — and the psychology-backed foundation keeps it from feeling like fluff. Veteran self-help readers may find the terrain familiar, but the breadth-plus-action combination makes it a solid starting point for anyone ready to take stock across multiple areas of life at once.
