Neil Pasricha started a blog, 1000awesomethings.com and started writing about everyday occurrences and things that were awesome to him. People started reading it and over 10 million hits later he decided he must be on to something. He got all kinds of comments from readers who also shared the things they saw as awesome.
There are lots of things wrong with the world, like war and global warming but there are some everyday comforts that helps us get through every day. The Book of Awesome draws out attention to these things and makes us appreciate the things that go right. There were some things that I didn’t find awesome myself, such as a person farting in public, and there were things I found boring, but there was something awesome for everyone in The Book of Awesome.
I purchased the eBook version of this book.

I agree with you – he stretched things to find that many awesome things, but it was a fun book. Thanks for linking to my review.
I have been wanting to get that book for a long time! But I want it in hard copy because the cover is so pretty. 🙂
