Matt Haig did it again.

Everyone who knows me is aware that I read A LOT of fantasy, a bit of sci-fi, so few contemporary, and I rarely read non-fiction. I read to escape but non-fiction books are just too close to reality for my liking. Despite that, I devour Matt Haig's non-fiction books. Notes from a Nervous Planet is a sort of follow up to Reasons To Stay Alive—a book that means so much to me.

Reasons to Stay Alive made me love Matt Haig so much. It is the second non-fiction book I honestly loved (the first is Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom) and when I found out about Notes on a Nervous Planet, I was so excited for it. Matt Haig gives honest insight on mental health and he talks about the negative things in this planet with raw emotion on this book. He also talks about his own experiences and gives profound advice that I often think he can read my mind. Once again, I found myself highlighting almost every line of a Matt Haig book because his words are just SO BEAUTIFUL and my heart becomes so full when I read them.

I also love that this book contains a lot of lists and chapters that are short but meaningful. There are a lot of problems addressed in this book too and I relate to most of them, especially when Matt talks about the effects of social media (particularly Twitter).

Notes on a Nervous Planet made me think, sob and laugh. I know non-fiction isn't a genre for everyone but I hope you would all give Matt Haig's books a chance because they're thought-provoking and incredibly TRUE.
