Help Me!

'I love it! Hilarious and thought-provoking!' - Fearne Cotton 'The Bridget Jones of self-improvement' - The Sunday Times Marianne Power was stuck in a rut. She wondered: could self-help books help her find the elusive perfect life? She decided to test one book a month for a year, following their advice to the letter. What would happen if she followed the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People? Really felt The Power of Now? Could she unearth The Secret to making her dreams come true? What begins as a clever experiment becomes an achingly poignant story. Because self-help can change your life - but not necessarily for the better . . . An international bestseller, Help Me! is an irresistibly funny and incredibly moving book about a wild and ultimately redemptive journey. It will resonate with anyone who's ever dreamed of finding happiness or making a fresh start.

Marianne Power is a writer and journalist who lives in London. Help Me! is her first book.
