Amber Keyes is an introvert so she understands introverts on an intimate level. She knows we are thinkers who like being alone deep in our thoughts. The problem is that most of the world is filled with extroverts. So how do you survive? This book presents some practical ways you can interact with the world.There are also some good tips on how to network. I liked her idea about being more curious about people to facilitate interactions at social events. This is something I struggle with when meeting new people. I'm most comfortable with people I've talked to more over time. So this is something you may have to force yourself to do and remind yourself to accomplish.Amber Keyes also discusses the advantages of being a good listener. At the end of the book there is a short section on how to master a relationship with an extrovert. Really I should say "survive." If you are married to an extrovert this section will interest you. So basically this is a very short book on life as an introvert.If you like this book you may also likeThe Introvert Advantage: Making the Most of Your Inner Strengths.~The Rebecca Review
