Not helpful at all. Shallow and repetitive.

I hate the writing style. It's too much "Boo-hoo, the narcissists in your life is so evil that he--it's somehow always a he--will purposely do this to you to ruin your life." It reads like a story of complaints against narcissists. With a title like "Freeing Yourself from the Narcissist in Your Life," I expected the book to much more helpful than it actually is. Instead, it's as if the author herself is narcissistic about her knowledge about narcissists ("I know this much about narcissists, and I know so-and-so is a narcissist because of these examples.") and her flowery style of writing (see other reviewers' excerpts from the book on this).

Not what I was looking for. I want a book that helps me understand what a narcissist is, who is one, how to spot them. I want a short quiz I can apply to people to that I meet.

This book comes across as a rant from someone who's feelings were hurt too many times when their assigned dinner companion didn't make small talk with them.
