A tender and moving book about one of our most important feelings - joy
Johann Hari New York Times bestselling author of Lost Connections

Joyful overturns conventional wisdom about happiness: that it comes from within, and that experiences not things make us happier. Ingrid Fetell Lee's delightful book evokes the same positive feelings she describes. It is full of whimsy, wonder, energy, and joy. I loved it.
Sonja Lyubomirsky Professor of Psychology, University of California, Riverside, and author of The How of Happiness
