When I was a little girl, I always preferred to stay in my room and read or play Legos. Truth be told, I never really fit in. I never had a lot of friends, and certainly never had the urge to go out and be social all the time. As I've gotten older, I've noticed that while there are times that I crave interaction with a select few close friends, most of the time I am most comfortable at home. I genuinely enjoy time alone and find it to be peaceful, to the point that my father has told me that I am "as an island unto myself." Reading Elle's story was very comforting and not only helped me to understand myself better, but showed me that I'm not alone in my tendencies. It's okay to be an introverted personality, and it is possible to fit in and adapt to an extroverted world. I applaud her in her triumph of overcoming the exhaustion of fitting in, and would definitely recommend this book to anyone that shares the introverted trait.
