Hello Super-Fans,

I wanted you Super-Fans to be the first to see the new jacket for the paperback of Better Than Before. It's very different from the hardback (which you can still see, above) -- and I hope you like it. New subtitle, too.

It turns out it's very hard to convey "habits" in an image. I think the arrows do a great job of communicating movement. And I love the bright colors.

But if you don't like it, please don't tell me. That horse has left the barn.

If you still haven't read Better Than Before, it's my new book -- can't resist adding, a New York Times bestseller -- about how we can master our habits. The most fascinating subject ever.

You can...

read an excerpt
listen to a clip of the audio-book (yep, that's me reading)
download your own Habit Change Checklist, to track a habit that you want to change
get a discussion guide for a book group, spirituality book group, or work group
take the Quiz to find out if you're an Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, or Rebel when it comes to changing habits
listen to me and my sister Elizabeth talk about habits on my new podcast, Happier with Gretchen Rubin

Super-fans, I can't help saying: if you enjoyed the book, tell your friends about it, or post an online review. Readers really respect the views of other readers; word of mouth is the best

Since the book came out last March, I've been thrilled to hear from so many people who have successfully changed challenging habits, as a consequence of reading it. I really hoped that it would make a difference in people's lives -- and it seems that they really have found Better Than Before helpful.

If you were able to change a habit using something you learned from Better Than Before, please post your experience to #BetterThanBeforeStories. We can all learn from each other.

In other news, my family got a dog! A sweet, friendly, black cockapoo puppy named Barnaby. We're very excited. Needless to say, he's made a big change in our habits.
