If you’re not having fun, you’re not fully living. The author of How to Break Up with Your Phone makes the casethat, far from being frivolous, fun is actually critical to our well-being - and shows us how to have more of it.We often think of fun as indulgent, even immature and selfish. We claim to not have time for it, even as we find hours a day for what Price calls Fake Fun―bingeing on television, doomscrolling the news, or posting photos to social media, all in hopes of filling some of the emptiness we feel inside.In this follow-up to her hit book, How to Break Up with Your Phone, Price makes the case that True Fun―which she defines as the magical confluence of playfulness, connection, and flow―gives us the fulfillment we so desperately seek. If you use True Fun as your compass, you will be happier and healthier. You will be more productive, less resentful, and less stressed. You will have more energy. You will find community and a sense of purpose. You will stop languishing and sta

“Kate Bowler is the only one we can trust to tell us the truth. This book will pen minds and warm hearts.” -- Glennon Doyle, author of the #1 NYT Bestseller UntamedIt’s hard to give up on the feeling that the life you want is just out of reach. A beach body by summer. A trip to Disneyland around the corner. A promotion on the horizon. Everyone wants to believe that they are headed toward good, better, best. But what happens when the life you hoped for is put on hold indefinitely? Kate Bowler believed that life was a series of unlimited choices, only to find that she was stuck in a cancerous body at age 35. In No Cure for Being Human, Kate searches for a way forward as she mines the wisdom (and absurdity) of our modern “best life now” advice industry, which offers us exhausting positivity, trying to convince us that we can out-eat, out-learn and out-perform our humanness. With dry wit and unflinching honesty she grapples with her cancer diagnosis, her ambition, and her faith and searc
