Due to a sudden, unexpected passing in the family a few years ago and another more recently and my subsequent (mental) health issues stemming from that, I was unable to download this book in time to review it before it was archived as I did not visit this site for several years after the bereavements. This meant I didn't read or venture onto netgalley for years as not only did it remind me of that person as they shared my passion for reading, but I also struggled to maintain interest in anything due to overwhelming depression. I was therefore unable to download this title in time and so I couldn't give a review as it wasn't successfully acquired before it was archived. The second issue that has happened with some of my other books is that I had them downloaded to one particular device and said device is now defunct, so I have no access to those books anymore, sadly.

This means I can't leave an accurate reflection of my feelings towards the book as I am unable to read it now and so I am leaving a message of explanation instead. I am now back to reading and reviewing full time as once considerable time had passed I have found that books have been helping me significantly in terms of my mindset and mental health - this was after having no interest in anything for quite a number of years after the passings. Anything requested and approved will be read and a review written and posted to Amazon (where I am a Hall of Famer & Top Reviewer), Goodreads (where I have several thousand friends and the same amount who follow my reviews) and Waterstones (or Barnes & Noble if the publisher is American based). Thank you for the opportunity and apologies for the inconvenience.

As self help books go I liked this one. I think it was kinda similar to other ones. But I liked this one and just saying fu*k it. I really need to journal more.

At this point in my life I needed this book. Moving through life stuck on so many things and then reading this just opened up a lot of things for me. Move on mother fu*ker is a self help book about doing absolutely that - moving on. It’s written in a way that you’re not only going to take a lot from it, but you’re gonna laugh while doing it. I believe my favorite thing about this whole book was being given the chance to write a journal entry after each chapter. It makes you feel included in the work and also take in the information and apply it to your life. Well written absolutely loved it and can’t wait to read more like it. Thank you Netgalley for giving me a chance to read this awesome book

I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. Thank you NetGalley!

This book was absolutely brilliant. Easy, quick read and it definitely hit me in the feels.

I'd definitely recommend this to my friends.

This was a great book for these kinds of issues and I loved the inclusion of the little exercises to do as you go through and the journaling. This was a no nonsense self help guide and I believe it will be helpful for those who suffer with these problems, and also has a hands on approach which differs from other similar books.

Forgive me for using slangs but "hit me right in the feels" is just so appropriate to describe what I felt while reading this book. For a seasoned therapist, the author sure has a way of connecting with readers without being too bookish and boring. For real, it escalates from relatable tears to laugh out loud in a matter of seconds! Let me give this sentences that just stuck with me long after I've read the entire book.

"You are you, you are fantastic and unique, and yes, sometimes and in some situations you are a real m_ _ _ _ _f_ _ _ _ _.. We all are."

Quirky, digestible and helpful read!
If there were half stars I would give this book a 3.5. First off, I loved the fun and direct tone of this book! Although the language in this book could be offensive to some, I thought it was refreshing. The advice and exercises were good and a liked the little stories from clients. Overall great read!

While I have this on my Netgalley list, I actually purchased a copy of the book.

If you have feeling stuck, anxious, unhappy or any other emotion that can be associated with those, this is the book for you. It gives every life strategies on how to work on those emotions, the thoughts and actions associated with them.

However, as you would guess from the title, there is profanity in the book. If this is not your style, I would recommend against getting the book. However, if you are like me, and profanity is common place in your life, this book is for you.

I found the self-awareness activities relatable and doable.

Will this book solve your life's problems? Will this book make all of the bad emotions go away? NOPE, no book can do that. However, this book might give you a strategy or two that may lessen the bad emotions and their impact on your life.

O. M. G. I couldn't love this book more! This is your friend giving you a friendly punch in the arm telling you to get out of your own damn way. The expertise + push to dig in and do the homework + the saltiness is just the BEST recipe. Jodie Eckleberry-Hunt has won a fan for liiiiiife!

I wasn't sure about this book going in, but its the kind that everyone needs to read! move on and let Shit go!

When a swift kick in the pants is required, this is it. Jodie lays it all out and gives you the tools needed to get over yourself and your own BS as well as not taking anyone else's. I really enjoyed this enlightening journey of seeing situations for what they are and learning how to own my part in them but also move on.

1 star.

I requested this book not knowing what to expect but that was why I requested it, because I was curious to see what it was about. Unfortunately it just didn't click with me and I lost interest pretty fast. I don't really have anything more to say. It simply wasn't for me.

I thoroughly enjoyed the writing content of this book! Having read it as an uncorrected proof on an iPad, I did have recurrent challengings with pages jumping which made sticking with the overall book difficult but what I did read, I quite loved. I was only three pages in when I texted a friend with a quote that I knew would resonate. She asked for the title of the book. F bombers with an interest in receiving constructive counsel on navigating in this crazy world would probably love this book. My mum (and any other person who bristles at profanity in general and the f word in particular) would not. I'm glad to know that "customer words" (cuss words) as my youngest brother called them when he was a tyke, help us process the world more effectively, at least if used judiciously. From time to time I have considered the effort of cleaning up my vocabulary. This book makes the argument that that action might be counterintuitive or at least, unnecessary. I liked how the author set up the Table of Contents so that one could tell at more of a glance which chapter might be the best after getting the basics from the first few chapters. MOMF tackles what could be tedious self work with frankness and humor. #MOMF #MoveOn

This is a book that we all need during this pandemic. It is a great self-help book with a wide array of tips and assistance.

Would recommend!

Jodie Eckleberry-Hunt is a therapist with her PhD. And she isn’t afraid of the F-bomb. I like her style. A lot.

After all, somebody has said that profanity is the new poetry. And I believe it.

“Move on Motherf*cker” is a hilarious, but necessary book that comes as a result of Jodie having to take her own advice and let go of her shit. Especially as she takes a new job that is super dysfunctional. In order to survive, she created the acronym “MOMF” and started joking about it to her fellow therapist buddy.

“Every time my colleague and I caught ourselves spiraling into a bad place, we’d MOMF each other. It was amazing how quickly that shifted our mood. It was like a shot in the arm.”

Jodie explains to us that WE are all an M-Efer in our own way. We each bring on our own drama, self-talk and mental obsession—especially when our mind is a mess. And sometimes we need to cuss ourselves out. Because, wouldn’t ya know it, cussing brings emotional relief! Plus, putting the “MOMF mantra” to work helps us take responsibility.

“Calling yourself out can be an act of self-love.” And most of us need to move on from what’s getting in our own way.

So as crude as it is, sometimes there’s just a special place in a person’s life when MOMF is the right tool for the job. “It’s salty but loving, and it cuts through the crap.”

This book is a self-help tool kit to teach us the concepts of using MOMF in our lives while incorporating evidence-based mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). In it, we learn how the pieces of Jodie’s MOMF plan fit together to help us with:

--Cruel self-talk
--A need to control uncontrollable thing
--Relationship traps
--Parenting pain
--Work problems
--Health issues
--Bad habits
--Coming to terms with painful events
--Necessary life changes

Grab a notebook and pen to complete the exercise to “pinpoint where your own personal crazy talk is coming from.”

Exactly what I needed in exactly the way i needed to hear it. The approach and message that this book has makes it easier to receive and accept whatever help or guidance you are in need of. Everyone could use a tune up regardless of what's going on in their lives but in this particular moment in time I found this to be the voice I could relate and be open to. A great find for a mind open to let s**t go!
I received an advanced copy of this book from Netgalley for my honest review.

I was hoping for something a bit different from other self help books, but this was a run on the mill same as many others available, it was amusing at times, but pretty much the same as many out there, not for me really

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

What we all need to read right now!! I am a therapist who primarily works with teens and young adults and so much of this book is right up their alley!! Reframing to positive isn't always helpful but the techniques and the realness in this book will do the trick!! Thank you NetGalley for the early read!!! Will def buy!!!!

Lord knows I have no problem cussing. So clearly, this is right up my alley. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

A full Q&A with the author is available on my blog! https://inliterarylove.wordpress.com/2020/11/03/move-on-motherfcker-a-qa/

With everything going on in the world today, a self-help book peppered with expletives is exactly what I didn't know I f*cking needed.

You may be wondering why a book on how to improve your life needs to include swears but it turns out they're kind of the point! Psychologists say swearing is good for you and relieves stress - I f*cking knew it! You'll learn how to swear your way through all sorts of negative thoughts and toxic situations but what really resonated with me was the reminder to let go of what I can't control. We're dealing with a total sh&t show of a year and this book calls you on your bullsh&t and gives you a kick in the ass to change your story. MOMF (Move On Motherf*cker!) is so my new mantra.
