The Introvert Advantage: How Quiet People Can Thrive in an Extrovert World by Marti Olsen Laney
4.0
The book led me to understand and accept many aspects of myself which made me feel like an outcast. I,for the most part of my life felt that there was something wrong with me and I never had my personal backup system or confidence up until a few months ago. Even then, I felt uncomfortable about certain things and I had no idea why I behave the way I do when everyone else fit right into what was considered "normal". So, I thank the author for writing this book and it is nice to know I'm not flawed as I believed to be.
But the title still seems quite disconnected, cos it doesn't feel like a book about introverts. Most of the time it was about understanding extroverts, why they are great, wow, stuff like that. I appreciate it, but this book was supposed to be about something but constant deviation gets annoying after a while. Also, sometimes it felt like teaching a baby to walk, oh come on, we're not retarded, neither are we in a drowning expedition for you to keep reminding us to breathe, that was irritable. Well other than that, I always appreciate a book which tells me a lot of things I don't know and this one rightly fits there and was even interesting than prolonged lectures most books under this category generally provide. :)
