Some people live in the self-help section. I vacation there. I have won friends and influenced people, I have thought and grown rich, I have art of warred, I have seven habited, and I have Marie Kondoed. But I have never tried not giving an F. Sarah Knight has written several books about not giving an F, culminating in this gem: “You Do You.” The author takes us on a witty, irreverent journey dismantling the hold that other people have on us. She examines the social contract as a basis of expectations and gives us examples of how to escape them. Sarah isn’t going to smile more and neither should you if you don’t feel like it. Even through the snarky tone of the book, the author sincerely discusses how she copes with her own anxieties which serves as a reality check in allowing other people’s expectations to cause us stress. As RuPaul says, “What you think of me is none of my business.”

While the advice seems solid (particularly the section on selfishness) the writing style with EXCESSIVE use of CAPitalization and bolding was very annoying. (

It’s good, funny, and it offers a lot of practical tips that can be easily incorporated in everyone’s life. The ideas are concise which I think makes the book even more effective. But personally, as someone who have read quite a lot of self-help book, I find several of the ideas presented to be repetitive and it’s like I have already read them from someone. But maybe that’s the thing with self-help books. However, this book still stood out for me because of the funny narrative. (

I really like Knight's humor, self-awareness, vulnerability, and straightforwardness. The book starts with some good self-reflection questions. (

How to be you and to realise that if you don't at least try to be you, you will be unsatisfied with your life.
It mostly boils down to : Accept who you are and act with confidence and "You do you also means accepting other people for who they are, and acting with deference" (page 290)
Don't be a psychopath, be accepting of you and accept that others have different lives and prioriites. But also don't be a doormat.
I really enjoyed reading it, I found it worthwhile and it gave me a few things to think about. (
