"This book is a balm and a treasure. In a trauma-weary culture that cannot tear its eyes away from the negative (especially on social media), @upworthy has been an oasis of goodness, warmth, and humanity for many years now. I am one of the millions who breathes a sigh of relief whenever the algorithm feeds me an Upworthy story, knowing that I will always feel better about the world after having read it. And now there is this book, which I will give to so many friends and loved ones, and which will live forever nestled on my bedside table, as a reminder that, as one stranger says to another in these pages: 'Most people are good'." --Elizabeth Gilbert
"Now, more than ever, this book is essential. What's inside these pages will move you again and again. How can anyone get enough of this?" --Kristen Bell
"Thank you, Upworthy, for
Good People! This book adds much needed joy to the world." --Jennifer Garner
"I
love Upworthy! It's one of the first Instagram accounts I locked into when I finally and reluctantly tried social media. Some of these stories make me laugh, some make me cry, and all restore my faith in humankind." --Sheryl Crow
"I think it's a wonderful and important thing to share stories of joy and kindness, reminding us there is more love and hope in this world than we could possibly imagine." --Charlie Mackesy, author and illustrator of
The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse
