While there number of swear words and times the author used “boo” was a little distracting, I did find this book very helpful. There is a test at the beginning, in case you don’t already know your number. I like the way she described each type to be a bit more relatable. I also really appreciated the included wing analysis. It’s a very good resource for learning about the enneagram, especially for beginners like me.
Though I’m technically a "geriatric millennial," I don’t much identify with the millennial generation so it’s not surprising that I didn’t relate to this book.

I didn't realize that Millenneagram is a big online thing; I just saw this on a new books list and took it on impulse because the title was kind of funny and I'm really soft for personality test nonsense. It's a very aesthetically appealing book and it definitely assumes you already have some familiarity with the Enneagram system. It has a quick and dirty quiz to sort you--which was WRONG for me, it pegged me as a Two when I'm obviously a Nine. How dare.
Anyway, I liked her humorous tone and there are some good insights in here, if you're into this kind of thing. Which I am. If you're not already, this won't convert you.

Quit on this one. This was trying too hard and difficult to read. There are so many great enneagram books out there — feel free to skip this one.
If you flinch at profanity in books or online, this will NOT be your Enneagram resource. But this is the resource for folks who want straight talk and contemporary examples about the Enneagram. The author seems to have a lot of love for people from all 9 types - and she wants each person to understand who they are, lean into who they are, and show up in all the ways they need to to be the healthiest version of themselves they can pull off. I loved this!
There were some good insights, I did like the breakdown of the wings and the instinctual variants, but the overall tone was too off-putting. I got a bit tired of the author talking about herself. And I’m a 4, so I kind of get it. But it felt like she was leaning too hard into that stereotype.
Then towards the end the author ironically gets way too preachy about her own views on the divine and her issues with religion, and while her story is her story, it was an out-of-place diatribe.

Confesssion: I read the intro, my type/triad overview, my wing, and my integration. My copy is from the library so I can't make notes in it and to read the whole thing would leave it covered in all sorts of scribbles. But I have NEVER felt so seen, and simultaneously so understood. Reading this feels like you are pinned on a slide under a microscope but that you are on a therapy table getting stuff worked out. So thankful for this book, and for Paasch's diligent work in writing it.
