5 Books That Changed The Way I Think
A round up of books that have changed the way I form opinions.
Why Rebel
"Why rebel? Because our footprint on the Earth has never mattered more than now. How we treat it, in the spirit of gift or of theft, has never been more important."
Period: It’s About Bloody Time
"I loathe my period. I cannot wait for the day it sods off. For good. But shall I tell you what I loathe even more? Not being able to talk about it. Freely, funnily and honestly.
Noise Damage
"What follows is not another clichéd tale of rock ’n’ roll debauchery (sorry) or of triumph over adversity (you’re welcome) – you’ve heard all of that before. And you already know about ‘the other guys’ – that exalted one per cent who monopolise our airwaves, pages and screens; the guys who make the big bucks with big promo budgets. The guys who’ve been all the way to the top. Nope, this is the untold story about the rest of us."
How To Fail: Everything I’ve Ever Learned From Things Going Wrong
“Living your life according to what everyone else might think of you is to cede control of who you are. It is to outsource your identity to a bunch of strangers who do not know you.”
Pandora’s Lunchbox: How Processed Food Took Over The American Meal
“The avalanche of prefabbed, precooked, often portable food into every corner of American society represents the most dramatic nutritional shift in human history.”
Life As A Unicorn: A Journey From Shame To Pride And Everything In Between
“I believe almost dogmatically in difference, in the idea that every single person is unique, with their own innate sense of self, and that it is this difference which brings all of us together as one.”
Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns)
“There is no sunrise so beautiful that it is worth waking me up to see it.”
Inferno
"I was so preoccupied with the idea of losing my body, it had never occurred to me that I might lose my mind."
