Overview

The “genius” national bestseller on the art of caring less and getting more — from the author of Calm the F*ck Down and F*ck No (Cosmopolitan).

Are you stressed out, overbooked, and underwhelmed by life? Fed up with pleasing everyone else before you please yourself? It’s time to stop giving a f*ck.

  • Family drama
  • Having a “bikini body”
  • Iceland
  • Co-workers’ opinions, pets, and children
  • And other bullsh*t!

And it will free you to spend your time, energy, and money on the things that really matter. So what are you waiting for? Stop giving a f*ck and start living your best life today!

Reviews

“This how-to book grabs us with its catchy title, no doubt inspired by Marie Kondo’s bestseller, but delivers by empowering us to learn to say no and banish the word ‘should’ from our lives.” Parade

“This unashamedly funny, honest and practical book promises to show you ‘how to stop spending time you don’t have with people you don’t like doing things you don’t want to do’, which sounds pretty darn tempting to us. You’ll learn how to shrug off debilitating things such as guilt, misguided obligation and shame, and embrace the things that really make you happy. And it makes you laugh. Bring it on!” Heat (UK)

“Self-help to swear by… Knight’s admittedly profane and giddy advice book is pretty darn useful.” The Boston Globe

“After reading this book cover-to-cover and compiling a list of ten things I don’t give a f*** about (Kanye West and exfoliation figured pretty highly), I realise how wonderfully liberating it is to stop apologising for things I’m not sorry about.” Red (UK)

“[An] hilarious guidebook aims to rid your mind of annoying coworkers, family issues, and body pressures… In the process you’ll lighten your spirit and clear your calendar, freeing up time and energy for yourself (and your Netflix account).” Real Simple
