Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain
4.0
I have a few thoughts on this book.
1. This book is important in highlighting the strengths of introverts and making people who are introverts feel like they have a valued place in the world
2. The author, Susan Cain, decided to leave all her academic citations for the end of the book. While I understand wanting your book to read more like a novel, this choice made it really difficult to trust what she was saying for quite some time in the book. She does cite everything in the back, like promised.
3. The second half the book is better than the first. So, stick with it if you are struggling.
