## Description

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From New York Times bestselling author and beloved Today show co-host Hoda Kotb comes an inspiring collection of quotes that offer wisdom, courage, and hope—the perfect gift for Mother's Day! Several years ago, Today show co-host Hoda Kotb began posting a variety of quotes on her Instagram page. Some were penned by a favorite writer; others offered a dose of love or laughter. She thought the quotes were meaningful only to her, but soon a funny thing started happening—reactions poured in from thousands of people who were just as moved. The quotes weren't only providing inspiration to Hoda, they were comforting and connecting people. So many of their comments read, “I really needed this today,” a phrase that inspired the book's title. In I Really Needed This Today , Hoda not only shares 365 sayings and quotes, she writes about the people and experiences that have pushed her to challenge boundaries, embrace change, and explore relationships to their fullest. Written with her signature wit and warmth, this book is the ideal companion to tuck beside your bed or to bring with you on-the-go to keep you motivated, recharged, and inspired each day.

Review: Must read - Its a great book. I love it
Review: Quote Lovers Gem - This book is short, direct and incredibly fun to read. Hoda starts each day with a quote or personal pondering then adds a few brief personal remarks or instances all within a page or usually less than half a page. The font is larger than most devotionals/daily readers so its great to pick up bedside before you roll out of bed & find your glasses. It is quick to read and easy to meditate on throughout the day and most are applicable to anyone in any situation. While written as a daily thought to ponder or encouragement, it can be read in a variety of ways. Instead of using it as a daily read, I would sit and read a month at a time and write out quotes for myself, my letter board, or to send to people who needed some encouragement. I enjoyed reading it in chunks. Her pages are like potato chips and it’s hard to stop at one! Hoda’s refreshing perspective, personal experiences, and insight were just what I needed to hear during quarantine so I bought several more for teens and adults alike as gifts. It is suitable for anyone looking for a daily vitamin for a positive outlook.

*by A***S on December 8, 2019*

I bought this book, without reading anything about it, for my teenage daughter. Once it arrived, and I began to read the quotes and the book, I stopped reading Ms. Kotb's writing. I began putting sticky notes to my daughter throughout the book, because I wanted to give my daughter my thoughts, as well, without any influence. THEN, I read Ms. Kotb's thoughts, which were beautiful and personal and so amazingly insightful. I am hoping that it is understood the appreciation for this conglomeration and my creative out-take with my daughter...she'll be heading to college in a couple of years. I wanted for her to have perspectives when tough nights at school came about. It was absolutely a bonus into my life, and hopefully, hers.
