I adored the cover of this book as soon as it popped through my letter box, its so bright and reminds me somehow of Mary Poppins.
I’m not a fan of self help books, if I need help, I’d head to a professional. This book wasn’t really like that at all, it was cleverly written and researched and was a joy to read for this “non moody, non grumpy old woman”

Too many funny lines to remember. This reads like a sitcom. You can almost hear the fake audience laughter!
I thought I was lucky to find this book on the shelf because I met to check out Janice Kaplan and her other book (Gratitude Diaries). Now that I finished, I don't feel lucky or learned a whole lot.
Each chapter started with Janice conversing with Barnaby Marsh (the co-author) about an aspect of luck and then her following her famous contacts (or her contacts' contacts) to shed more light on the topic.
I did wonder how she got to talk to such famous people so easily (and have someone with a lucky lift?) Maybe I could have looked at this as a meta-guide to luck .... While reading about a woman trying to figure out about luck, we are actually observing a lucky woman and can draw our own conclusions about luck.
