Review
An e-copy of the book has been provided by the publisher, Penguin Random House International, in exchange for an honest review.
“Self-belief alone will not achieve your goals, but achieving your goals without self-belief will be almost impossible.”
Self-help books are always interesting in such a way that they tend to become quite exhausting and repetitive. Most of the time, the central theme is laid down in the first few chapters of the book. The consequent chapters, then, becomes nothing more than a filler to make the book long—falling into a digression of impertinent or redundant subjects.
‘It’s About Damn Time’ placed itself well enough to not feel arduous and surplus of unnecessary stories and information. Does it offer something fresh, new, and unique? No, it does not. But it executed the dissemination of information in a provoking approach.
The way Arlan Hamilton wrote and spread her topics made the book interesting. Reading it never felt like a chore. And the sense of connection she elicits is extremely powerful; regardless if you’re directly connecting with her or you’re feeling a sort of resonance with her story.
An effective book that will impart an understanding of welcoming your genuine self and the exact magnitude of self-love, ‘It’s About Damn Time’ is truly a good investment for a book.
