Here is what people are saying about Michelle DeAngelis and her book, Get A Life That Doesn't Suck:

  • "I just finished reading your book, in one sitting actually, I couldn't put it down. I love the idea of Joy Riding and it's a great feeling to know that I can control how I choose to feel about a bump in the road. Thanks so much You have truly brightened my life."
    - Jessica, Gainesville, FL

  • "I have to say that the entire time I was reading the book I kept saying to myself that EVERYONE should read this. I was thinking about how all my friends should read it. Every tip that Michelle gives in this book is so simple and doable for everyone. Sometimes we don't realize that WE are, in fact, in control. We tend to blame everything that happens to us on anything but ourselves. This book really helps by suggesting simple, easy ways to be in control of our lives. For me, it helped clarify that I can live the life I want by simply adjusting the way I think. About a year ago, I started applying many of the things in Michelle's book on my own, by trying to be more connected and in the moment. When I started reading Get a Life That Doesn't Suck, it was like realizing that I was on the right path. It felt amazing and the best part is that I got a bunch of tips on how to be organized!"
    - Derek, Los Angeles, CA

  • "Thank you for your work on educating people about the "Gap." I heard you speak at the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce meeting and I have been thinking about the Gap principles ever since. As a matter of fact, your talk prompted my husband and I to talk about ways we could do more to grow our personal integrity. It was a direction changer we both needed. Thank you!"
    - Ashleigh, Phoenix, AZ

  • "I wanted to let you know how much your book has inspired me. I'm a self-help reader from WAY back (my husband calls me the self-help queen), but no book has helped me practically immediately such as yours. Most other books I read, put away, and never think about it again. I plan on keeping your book right where I can get at it on a daily basis. I found it at a time in my life that I really needed it. Thanks so much for writing it. Also, not only was your book truly enlightening, it was HILARIOUS!"
    - Kim, Santa Fe, NM

  • "I recently checked out your book, Get A Life That Doesn't Suck, from the library. Oh my goodness. I am only on page 81, however this book has already changed my life. Your words have inspired me to change my thinking and really begin to live. I am so excited about this book and wanted to tell you thank you. Thank you for writing this book! It is life-changing."
    - Chamonix, Dallas, TX

  • "[The book is] well organized, easy to follow, and strikes that hard-to-reach balance between spiritual language (which can be impractical) and real-world plain talk (which can ignore spiritual matters). Thanks for writing a book that has come to be at the right time."
    - S.S., Oakland, CA

  • "I have been teaching middle school for 11 years, and I'm starting to really wonder where my joy has gone. Then I saw Michelle on The View From the Bay. I just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for the information in your book. Thanks for inspiring me! I am going to get the book, and get going on my joy project. I have so much to be grateful for, including you and your work, and I am so ready to make myself a priority. Hallelujah!"
    - Renee, Sunnyvale, CA

  • "[Get A Life That Doesn't Suck] has helped me see things in such a positive light, and given me techniques and motivation to get through so much that is going on in my life right now, as well as help cope with what has gone on in the years past that I have not quite let go of yet. [Michelle is] an amazing writer and this book has made a huge difference in my life and my future. [Michele is] one of the rare authors that "tells it like it is" ... not all of the scientific mumbo-jumbo, but "real person" talk... words like "nekked" and "phooey"... writing in ways that REAL people can relate to, and adding in humor to give a smile in every chapter just when we seem to need it most."
    - Deborah, Bend, OR

  • "During a recent trip, my mother was concerned about a visit to a friend who is dying of cancer. She was reading Get A Life That Doesn't Suck and focused on "Show Up, Be Present." She put aside worries about what to say, what to do, and showed up! All bookstores should have it front and center right now!"
    - Teri, Wichita, KS

  • "Thank you for your book. I just bought it and I am really excited after just 4 pages! It is not the typical self-help book, which usually leaves me feeling inadequate. The "Gap" is truly an Aha experience for me."
    - Barbara, Atlanta, GA
