Embrace your inner goblin! Learn to decorate, dress, craft, forage, and live according to the goblin principles of community, diversity, proud weirdness, and joyful mess.
Do you ever feel strange, gross, chaotic, underappreciated, or like you don’t quite fit in? Great news: you might be a goblin! That means your imperfections and idiosyncrasies are the most awesome things about you, and you can build a more balanced, comfortable, harmonious life by accepting and honoring them—taking inspiration from the frogs, fungus, moss, rocks, and dirt that goblins love.
Can a mushroom give you fashion tips? Can a snail teach you to be a better person? You bet they can—and in this audiobook you’ll also learn to:
- Build a moss garden for your lair,
- Grow and use medicinal plants,
- Forage for berries (even in the city),
- Mend your cozy sweaters,
- Display your cool rock collection,
- And more!
Anyone can be a goblin, and Goblin Mode includes life advice for celebrating physical and mental diversity, rejecting prejudice, and generally hanging on to a little joy.
Goblin Mode will help you rethink your relationship with your body, your home, your community, and the earth.

Comparing yourself to others and talking negatively about them is a surefire way to make everyone miserable.

Also, the message about green spaces is confusing. Apparently lots of people don't have access because of.... reasons? The author says it's because of costs and racism/classism but doesn't actually elaborate on why or how. State park passes are not prohibitively expensive (in my state at least, a yearly pass is only $16) and while I can see transportation being a bigger issue, that wasn't even mentioned. The author even uses a passing mention of the Flint water crisis as an example of this restriction, which was terrible but doesn't have anything to do with access to green spaces and nature. It felt like they were throwing that in there just to make another political statement. However.... in the beginning of the book the author talks about how nature is just outside, literally everywhere. And the author mentions in the foraging section, how easy it can be to forage in the city (which implies nature and greenery IS accessible, just not in the same way as a large park perhaps). So their message really doesn't make much sense here.
So overall, I give this 3 stars for the helpful messages and tutorials and the encouragement for being yourself; along with the wonderful narration. But I docked 2 stars for the heavy handed political message and confusing information about access to nature.
A lot of good things but...

Goblins existing in our society would be capitalists because they like collecting oddities. No one is preventing you from exploring nature and collecting what makes you happy.
Why would goblins hate capitalism?
