From the point of view of an introvert who struggles to assimilate into an extrovert world, it can be very stressful and very exhausting to participate in social activities outside of the workplace and social interaction within the workplace. Elle tells her touching story of self- discovery beginning with her realization that she was different from most in that she thrived on the feelings of inner peace and positive energy that resulted from spending quality time alone. She writes about being physically and emotionally drained having to compensate for her inability to fit in easily and to interact appropriately in a socially acceptable way. As an introvert myself, I recognize the exhausting feeling that overcomes you during a social gathering, especially those gatherings full of strangers. Elle experiences also reminds me of the strange feeling of inadequacy you feel after the gathering as you reflect on your social disaster. Introverts who read this book will feel inspired by Elle’s self-accepting attitude and adventurous spirit.
