I'm Not Lazy, I'm on Energy Saving Mode
Translated by Clare Richards
The charming Korean bestseller which highlights how resting and 'being lazy' shouldn't be seen as a weakness but as an important part of recharging.
Lying on the floor scrolling through social media; wrapped up in bed taking your second nap of the day; lounging on the sofa watching TV. You are not lazy, you are on energy saving mode.
In a world obsessed with work and productivity, I'm Not Lazy, I'm on Energy Saving Mode highlights how resting and 'being lazy' shouldn't be seen as a weakness or a character flaw, but as an important process of recharging.
After years of battling with depression and lethargy, author and illustrator Dancing Snail realised the importance of being compassionate to ourselves and taking care of our minds when we feel low. On days you don't feel motivated, are going through a slump, or simply feel like doing nothing, this book provides you with reassuring words on loneliness, adulting, overthinking and more. Written in short-form chapters with charming illustrations, I'm Not Lazy, I'm on Energy Saving Mode gives you radical permission to take the break you don't feel you deserve.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
