This book organizes human behavior and personality into four categories separated by color and describes in detail which ones (people tend to be combinations of two and three, rarely only one, never all four) fit each person with vivid detail and multiple examples.

I started reading this book because I have two people in my personal life who annoy and make little sense to me and I wanted to understand why - I definitely understand now.

I felt the book could’ve been a bit shorter and I honestly skipped through some parts that seemed long and drawn out to me, but ultimately, I think I understand it just fine and it’s crazy how such a simple concept can apply to really anyone we meet.

I wanted to DNF this at the 85% mark. Even including a statement from a reader saying that the book was too damn long.

It didn't provide anything new but it did give me another way to place people into one of four archetypes. That said it's simpler than astrology and less entertaining. I wanted there to be more insight into how stubborn people can be when they believe they are correct.

It wasn’t bad, per se, but it was fairly dry and repetitive. Almost 300 pages with the same information on colour types replayed again and again, each time in a new, extensively detailed real-life example. Pretty basic stuff to write about and yet not explored in great depth, so little has been learnt

Quite boring. May be good for managers.

This was an interesting and entertaining read, and I think anyone who enjoys taking and learning about personality tests would enjoy it. I could definitely see myself in the book (I'm a green type) and could place many of my friends and family members into the four types of people discussed. But it's very much a pop psychology book and doesn't fully address the complexities of personality or acknowledge the societal factors that could complicate communication styles or group dynamics.

Good book that reads easy...but I still want to know more about the people who don’t normally fit into a set category.

And would be nice to have a quiz to find out what idiot you are in this world to others lol!

Needs further reading ....
