Description

Jane Enright is THE champion of positivity and resilience - having survived her entire world falling apart in one terrible year, she emerged from adversity stronger and happier than ever.

How often have you heard someone say, "I hate change'? That's because most people do. 

The reality is life puts us all through change: a series of events, some challenging and many joyful, that shape our day-to-day experiences. Sometimes though, in the blink of an eye, the unthinkable can happen. This begs the question: when the unexpected occurs, how do you successfully navigate change so you can land butter side up when life turns the tables? 

Butter Side Up is not self-help jargon; it is food for the soul. This compelling, riveting true story reviews an ordinary person’s extraordinary journey as she traverses sudden, catastrophic change: surviving three life-altering events in the span of twelve months, losing everything, but coming out the other end stronger and more resilient than ever before. 

Butter Side Up is a feel-good story we can all relate to and learn from it shows us there can be happiness and joy after unplanned change, and a super-awesome life too.

A self help book that reads like a short story with a few laughs and a touch of sadness, good tools to implement and lessons you can use everyday. Going into this book, I assumed I was going to read another self help with instructions on how to live your best life with a boringness that I’ve read many times before, however the emails and life quips add to the message of outside in thinking, mindfulness and gratitude.

I really enjoyed this as I have been dealing with grief of my own this past year. This was a fast read and I felt myself nodding along and agreeing with Enright along the way. She made me feel heard and seen. I really liked that she included letters she was sending to friends and family during the year. As this book covers heavy life topics and change, we are still left with so much hope.

'Butter Side Up' is a beautifully written memoir following Jane as she faces tragedy, health issues and loss. She inspires you to move ahead and not let change and difficult times get in the way of life.

Thank you NetGalley and Friesen Press for providing me an ARC! It came at a time right when I needed it.
