I Really Needed This Today: Words to Live By

This book was given to me by a friend. I have read this book every single day since January 1, 2020. It’s part of my morning routine. Hoda’s selection of words to live by are so uplifting. Although I started reading it preCOVID, her wise insights inspire me each day. I love it so much that I have the Kindle version in my phone. Perfect Xmas gift for you and your loved ones.

Its a great book. I love it

Nice for a gift

One if the best motivational books I ever read ! So easy ,every day situations …so encouraging ! You need to have it ! Book for every day !

Initially, I picked up a copy of this book at a rummage sale. Some of the quotes here are the best I’ve ever read. I am thoroughly enjoying every page. I have ordered additional copies, for gifts. The title “I really needed this today” is a spot on perfect description of this book.

I Am a big fan of Honda’s and love watching her. She is positive and always with a smile. I Love this book except being in the older generation the light purple text is very difficult to see and read. I wished the print was in black.

This book is short, direct and incredibly fun to read. Hoda starts each day with a quote or personal pondering then adds a few brief personal remarks or instances all within a page or usually less than half a page. The font is larger than most devotionals/daily readers so its great to pick up bedside before you roll out of bed & find your glasses. It is quick to read and easy to meditate on throughout the day and most are applicable to anyone in any situation. While written as a daily thought to ponder or encouragement, it can be read in a variety of ways. Instead of using it as a daily read, I would sit and read a month at a time and write out quotes for myself, my letter board, or to send to people who needed some encouragement. I enjoyed reading it in chunks. Her pages are like potato chips and it’s hard to stop at one! Hoda’s refreshing perspective, personal experiences, and insight were just what I needed to hear during quarantine so I bought several more for teens and adults alike as gifts. It is suitable for anyone looking for a daily vitamin for a positive outlook.

This little gem of a book had been on my radar for a long time. I’ve been trying to limit my spending and not buy so many books (because although I hate to admit it- I may be what you call a book hoarder…). Lucky for me Amazon had a special price for this book to start off the new year, and Happy New Year to me! 🎉 I am more than happy with this book! It is everything that I expected and more! I LOVED all the quotes, and especially Hoda Kotb’s explanations and stories afterwards. Yes, if you are on social media you have probably seen these same quotes several times- but having Hoda’s words after them give these quotes that much more meaning. I have been a fan of Hoda Kotb for quite some time, but now I am a forever fan! I highly recommend reading this book, and I cannot wait to get my hands on her latest book of quotes titled This Just Speaks To Me.

I've been loving this book. Some quotes are funny, some are very meaningful. I have enjoyed the quick read daily and could see reading this year after year

This is the first book I’ve purchased in ages. I read it daily and take some deep breath‘s and meditate on the words. It only takes a few minutes but I really like it. I didn’t know much about the author before buying but she is relatable.

I had already read this book , enjoyed it , so bought it for a friend's birthday. Arrived on time.

Inspirational

A quick cut and paste job with pretty flowers on the cover. Completed on her maternity leave. Not unique there are hundreds of ths kind of book on shelves. Hope somethng went to charity
