AUDIO BOOK REVIEW: Get Your Sh*t Together: How to Stop Worrying About What You Should Do So You Can Finish What You Need to Do and Start Doing What You Want to Do (A No F*cks Given Guide) by Sarah Knight ★★☆☆☆
Get Your Sh*t Together is a giddily profane, immensely useful, and surprisingly powerful guide to achieving your wildest dreams--whether you're stuck in a job or relationship you hate, overwhelmed by a million unread emails, or just need a little help along your way to world domination.
First, "anti-guru" Sarah Knight taught you how to shed unwanted guilt and obligations like a year's worth of old socks in The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving A F*ck. But what about the f*cks you just have to give--about your career, your relationships, and even (gulp) your taxes? Now, Sarah's back: to help you set goals, achieve them, and, most importantly, end the cycle of self-sabotage and get out of your own f*cking way.
Whether your dream is to quit your job and buy a food truck, pay off your credit card debt, or just to spend more time with your cat, with Sarah's proven method to identify what you want and make it happen, you'll set goals, crush them, and get out the door for happy hour. So, mark some bullsh*t emails as "read," stop whining, and start winning—today!
Overall Rated: 2/5
Narration Rated: 3/5
Story Rated: 2/5
This is probably the only audiobook I gave DNF. Gave up around 30% for the following reasons:
- I decided to listen to We're Going to Need More Wine by Gabriella Union instead. (Audio Book Review coming soon)
- About 20% in, I got the pattern. It’s honestly no brainer. First, you establish a goal, then you give that goal a time frame and finally you complete the goal. Figure out your priorities and drop anything that’s crowding your list. THERE! I saved you guys 5 hours of repetition.
- Sure, it’s spunky and has attitude, but I was hoping it would be inspirational. It came out a tad bit condensing. I don't know if it's because of how its written, or Knight's performance on the audiobook. There was this hint of “I can’t believe you’re so dumb so I gotta write a book that tells you to get your sh*t together.” Very off-putting. But her voice, tone and pace were nice.
- Although the chipmunk reference was cute, there is only so much I can take of her saying Sh*t. Like... I get it and to be fair she did warn me.
