YOU'RE NOT THAT GREAT (BUT NEITHER IS ANYONE ELSE)

Filled with humor and straight talk, and similar in style to The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving A F*ck, this book will appeal to readers who hate self-help books but still want to learn how to live a better life.

Elan is living proof that if you hate yourself enough you can accomplish anything. It was his own self-loathing (combined with his anger over the terrifying flood of inspirational messages that were giving people all over the world false hope) that propelled him to establish unspirational in 2014. Since inception, unspirational has grown to have over 5 million followers on Instagram alone, released three gift books (Texts from Your Ex, Tinder Nightmares—which have sold over 50,000 copies since being published last fall—and the upcoming gift book Your Shitty Family), become a bizarre record label, and opened a charitable branch.

Elan has spent the last eight years working as an executive producer on the wildly successful Bachelor TV franchise and so, as you can imagine, he has a rather unique knowledge of human nature. Some famous fans of his include Harry Styles, Ariana Grande, James Gunn, Jason Biggs, Jenny Mollen, and many more. unspirational quotes have been reposted by some amazing people like Lena Dunham and Amy Sedaris.

His book will cover a wide variety of topics, such as:
- How damaging (and stupid) it is to make your goal in life to “be happy”
- That you absolutely DON’T have to love yourself before you love someone else
- Why contentment is for suckers
- How you have the power to make yourself feel like shit and how to use that power
