I love Knight's book before I even start reading . . . the book works a charm

* Sunday Times Magazine *
Genius * Cosmopolitan *
Her book wooed me with this line: "Hot yoga Don't give a downard f***!" She has some frank advice . . . Bite me off a piece of that, I think * Style, Sunday Times *
Yes, it's a parody of a cult book . . . but it's something more, too. Knight acknowledges the overwhelmingness of the modern world in a different way to many before her * Guardian *
Changed my life. To this day, I think about how it schooled me in the fine art of giving less f*cks about people (and party invites) who don't really matter to me, and saving my precious time and energy for those who do. I wasn't alone - the book became an international bestseller * Vogue *
My new saviour . . . hilarious * Psychologies *
This kind-of-genius parody of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up might actually change your life * Women's Health *
Light relief . . . thoroughly modern self-help book * Independent on Sunday *
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 *
Unashamedly funny, honest and practical book . . . sounds pretty darn tempting to us . . . And it makes you laugh. Bring it on! * Heat *
[A] mix of Oprah Winfrey-style mantras and Amy Schumer-esque obscenities * Elle *
Self-help with an edge * Vogue *
A funny take on that very popular cleaning up book, but so much more. It's about taking care of yourself and not giving a f*ck what people think of your choices (but without being an a**hole). This book is kicking ass all over bestseller lists. Buy it. You won't be disappointed
This year's must-read [self-help] title * The Sun *
The self-help equivalent of a Weird Al parody song. (That's a compliment.) * The New York Times Book Review *
Hilarious and liberating * Fashion Me Now *
There are some really genius life lessons to be learnt, such as ditching "bikini body" guilt and embracing the NotSorry Method. * Elle Australia *
The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F--k stands out from the self-help pack not only for its frank language and sense of humour, but also because it is about less in a culture of more. * Daily Life *
Perfect for any woman who's finding the festive season a bit too much * The Sun *
Highly amusing * Mslexia *
The missing life manual that everyone should get at birth. It should be required reading in school . . . Sarah Knight is like a modern-day Mary Poppins for mental clutter . . . And her spoonful of sugar is her wicked sense of humour. Every household needs her . . . or at least a copy of her book . . . Outstanding * How to GYST *
For practical and sweary self-help advice with no bloody lectures, Sarah Knight is the bollocks * The Pool *
