Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read the arc of Good People.
This book is filled with great stories of wonderful memories of times when people were down, in trouble or lost and the quiet hero's who stepped in to make sure everything was ok. You will find yourself smiling, being shocked by the generosity and left remembering times when someone might have helped you out of the blue..

It's tough to go wrong with a book like this. Who doesn't love an uplifting story, let alone a lot of them. An easy book to recommend.

Thanks very much for the free copy for review!!

The stories in this book are absolutely amazing. Almost every single one of them made me tear up or cry or laugh or smile. I have followed Upworthy on Instagram for years and am so happy they created this heartwarming compilation of stories showcasing the good of humanity. I cannot wait to purchase this when it comes out and will buy this for family and friends as well. These stories are so wholesome and I want to be able to return to this book and read through them over and over again.

I am honestly a pessimist and even more so, a nihilist... it's just the way the dust has fell for me. So I went into this book thinking it'd probably be good for me, but also.... oh yay happy people, the world is so great... eye roll.

I have to tell you, it was such a true joy to read this book. These short glimpses of humanity are bite sized bits of candy. They are so heartwarming and soul refreshing. This book is so good for all of us - those who already see the best in the world and also those like me who have a harder time doing so. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have read this book.
