Burnout Diaries was an absolutely amazing book. It chronicles the life experiences of Janna Donovan when she transferred positions in her company to one in Malaysia. At first eager and excited to start a new chapter in her family’s life, she quickly spiraled into a personal nightmare. The book is organized into journal entries and emails, making it a less dense read.
Donovan’s struggle was so real to me and I related so much. I have been in her position with having so much stress piled on me that a burnout was imminent. I managed through it but this book would have been helpful at the time that it happened.
I also enjoyed the ending of the book, which read more like your typical psychological help book. This was a very informative section and also very interesting.
I highly recommend this book for people going through work stress. It is a very beneficial read and proves there is light beyond the darkness.
