I’ve never read a book that knew me so well or that I read so easily. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has struggled on how to deal with being an introvert in a world that seemingly primary rewards the extroverts.

Quiet, describes every struggle I felt since I was a ki[a:Susan Cain|4101935|Susan Cain|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1315319296p2/4101935.jpg]d. Being told I’m too “sensitive” or labeled as shy when really I’m not shy b...I just don’t want to talk to you. I’m an introvert who prefers to drive in silence for hours & have alone moments, yet loves living a full life. I enjoy public speaking & events, but I’m done after a few hours of being around people. I’m surrounded by extroverts who require a lot of energy & it can feel draining. My best work & ideas come from when I’m solo, not in groups. All things this book helped me see as normal. However, I’m more than capable of acting like an extrovert and do small talk just fine.

So for my fellow introverts I leave you with this quote from the book - “If you’re an introvert, find your flow by using your gifts. You have the power of persistence, the tenacity to solve complex problems and the clear-sightedness to avoid pitfalls that trip others up.” [b:Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking|8520610|Quiet The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking|Susan Cain|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1328562861l/8520610._SY75_.jpg|13387396][a:Susan Cain|4101935|Susan Cain|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1315319296p2/4101935.jpg]
