review 1: I had several emotions when I happened upon this book: 1- Curiosity. How could someone tell you how to be interesting? That's preposterous! I must pick it up and see what they have to say.2- Surprise. This book is cute and says things that makes sense. It's not saying anything that you don't already know, but it reminds you of concepts that you might have forgotten. It's also really assuring, very encouraging, and a little empowering.3- Embarrassment. No one's noticing the fact that I'm picking up this book, right? God, I don't want people to think that I'm a boring loser that needs a book to make friends or something. I put it in the middle of the stack of books that I was getting. Now that I've finished the book, I have decided that it'd be a great book to revisi... moret once in a while, especially when you need a little pick-me-up. I could be feeling bored, cowardly, or unworthy, and I feel like this book will help me flex my emotional muscles and think, "Yeah, I can do this!"Well, that's my two cents, and if you didn't find it interesting: A) I don't care, and B) Maybe I'll read it again and write another, BETTER review! :-P So there!
review 2: So inter--so short I read it twice.More encouragement than instructions. Some example pages I liked are"Involve Others: You'll need help. You'll need advice. You'll need allies. So you have to tell someone how you feel and what you're up to. Let people in on what you're doing. They will champion and support you more than you ever imagined, and mock you less than you fear."and"Compliment Liberally: Kind words are quite precious and cost nothing; it's surprising that they're so rare. Laud what you enjoy. Praise the people who excel in novel ways. Do it publicly and often. Everyone needs more encouragement."I hesitated to put this on my read list though; people might start expecting things. less
