The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life is a 2016 nonfiction self-help book by American blogger and author Mark Manson. The book covers Manson's belief that life's struggles give it meaning and argues that typical self-help books offer meaningless positivity which is neither practical nor helpful, thus improperly approaching the problems many individuals face. It was a New York Times and Globe and Mail bestseller.

I'm not one for self help books but this one was tolerable. The beginning and last two chapters are good. The rest is the same self help stuff you can find everywhere but with a search and replace of "Care about" to "Give a F*ck" on the same old texts.

The best idea I drew from the book is that being surrounded by experiences (filtered trough social media) you get pushed to care about much more useless stuff than it's healthy.
