Marianne Power

Marianne Power is a British journalist and blogger with ‘an embarrassing weakness for self-help’. Her company in bed at night is Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, she has a battered copy of Little Book of Calm next to the loo, and if it’s got Oprah’s seal of approval, she’ll buy the book and watch the DVD. Now, Marianne has put her self-help books to the test by doing everything they tell her to do. Her mission has been covered by BBC Radio, ITV television, and has featured in the Daily Mail, Red Magazine and Good Housekeeping. She also has a regular happiness column in the Irish Independent Saturday magazine.

What if the best way to fix your life was to figure out that you didn’t want to change at all? An addictive, funny and incredibly moving debut.

Marianne Power was stuck in a rut. Then one day she wondered: could self-help books help her find the elusive perfect life? She decided to test one book a month for a year, following their advice to the letter. What would happen if she followed the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People? Really felt The Power of Now? Could she unearth The Secret to making her dreams come true? What begins as a clever experiment becomes an achingly poignant story. Because self-help can change your life – but not necessarily for the better ... Help Me! is an irresistibly funny and incredibly moving book about a wild and ultimately redemptive journey that will resonate with anyone who's ever dreamed of finding happiness.

'Existential epiphany, the next I was honking with laughter. Britain's answer to Sarah Knight, with Amy Schumer's naked hilarity and Matt Haig's soul-deep profundity chucked in.'
Catherine Gray

'Marianne's writing makes me smile and has moved me to tears more than once. She combines a journalist's no-nonsense investigative skills with a tenderness and honesty that sets her apart ... In helping herself, it turned out that Marianne was helping all of us.'
