Book Review - Simple Secrets to a Happy Life

About the Book
Is it possible to stay full of life, laughter, love, and the Lord through eight decades in this crazy world? Is that even realistic? Yes! There is hope, and Luci Swindoll is living proof.

With heart and humor, this best-selling author and beloved speaker lays out the truths that can help us all become a little more creative, organized, healthy, and happy. This is not a complex prescription for how to become superwoman. These are simple secrets, the wisdom produced by years of walking with God and living well.

We don’t need more tips for “having it all,” but we could all use insight on “having what matters,” and there is no better guide than Luci Swindoll.

Luci has spent eight decades accumulating the stories, memories, verses, and practical tips that make up Simple Secrets to a Happy Life. Whether traveling the world or building life-long friendships, singing in the opera or working for Mobil Oil, every step has taught her a little more about how to love God, love her neighbor, and love herself.

The result is both personal and universal. Organized into fifty short chapters, her reflections form a simple and profound outline for making the most of the lives God has given us.

We could all use a little more joy in our lives, which means we could all use a little more Luci. Visit her through these snapshots of wisdom. You’ll find yourself drawn back again and again.

My take on the Book
This was a well written book that will make you think deeply about what it means to be happy and what you can do to achieve this happiness in your life. Through short,easy to digest chapters the author lays out 50 ways in which you can turn your life into something happier. The book makes you think about and remember what is important in life and the things that you should be thinking about and remembering to do in the long run when you are trying to live a happy life. While not everything in this book is new or novel, they are still great things to remember along the way as if you have accomplished these 50 things, happiness should follow, or so it would seem!
