I have no clue where this book title came from to end up on my "to-read" list. But on it it was, and at my library it also was.
Very good book that discusses what makes people happy, what people think will make them happy (and why it doesn't), how the brain works in relation to a person's memory and how the predict they will feel in the future.
The author, Daniel Gilbert, is a funny guy and the reading is interesting, entertaining, and funny. I laughed out loud a few times.
There were numerous quotes and tidbits that made me think I should flag them with a colored post-it tag. I don't have any, however, so flagged nothing. I'm not going to re-read it for the purpose of this blog; go out and read this book.
Notice this is the first book review I have done that was of any sort of length.

You know I envy how much you read... If I do a book a month, I am lucky... Hope all is well!
I pretty much have to make the time to read, although I do go through periods where I can find the time easier than others. Rainy weekends and mornings while camping before my sleepy friends arise are always good.
