Eye opening and thought provoking. Reading this not only made me understand my introverted self on a deeper level, but it opened my eyes to the perspective of extroverts as well. It allowed me to better comprehend why extroverts struggle to relate and communicate with introverts. I could even relate situations and scenarios from my work life to the chapters of this book, and I hope that I will be better equipped to handle them.
This book has given me a sense of self, a sense of quiet power. This book has shown me that I can push myself if I need to, but that it is also okay to just be me.

Extremely boring I’ve learnt nothing from this just a chore to read

boring and full of stats. apart from a few lines, everything else is about research and this study says this and that. definitely not what I expected from the title.
So so good. Every introvert, ambivert and teacher and parent should read it. Begrudgingly rating 4/5 not 5/5 purely because of the few non-scientific scales included in the book.

It was interesting to hear quietness and being an introvert described positively. There were parts of the book that gave me the courage to stand up for what I need as an introvert. There were times that it dragged on, and at times it felt a little preachy as far as saying “hey, you’re an introvert? Awesome-here are thing you need! You do you! BUT...here’s a list of things you need to change because being your real you isn’t quite good enough.” To be fair, extroverts we’re picking on, too!
Also, I never knew that the “real” spelling is EXTRAvert! So glad she went with the popular spelling of extrovert! Those guys don’t need any more reminders of how extra they are! ;)

I am an extroverted “talker.” My husband and my step children are quiet introverts. This book helps me understand them SO much better!
