Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things by Jenny Lawson | Conversation Starters

The author’s purpose is to encourage people in similar conditions to find the advantage despite the situation, and thus her title is apt, “furiously happy.” Readers will laugh and cry with this book, and even if it was lightly told, realize the strength beneath the struggle against things that may bring a person down.
