review 1: This book is packed full of information to help you understand what goes on in the mind of a narcissist. Suggestions for empathetic dialogue were helpful. However, In the case of the Perilous Narcissist, I can say first hand that the examples and suggestions are not effective tools. Yet I still gained a tremendous amount of insight by reading this book as I can now understand how to look at the narcissist in my life through the eyes of a wounded child instead of seeing this person as merely selfish, arrogant, egotistical, entitled, and grandiose. It also helped me to realize that when this person criticizes me, they aren't necessarily doing it to intentionally put me down but are doing so because of their desperate need to lift themselves up.
review 2: I found
... morethis book very interesting. It answered ALL my questions and gave me understanding of this personality type and how to work with people in my life who are narcissists. I found the exercises very helpful. And lastly I discovered a little narcissism is healthy. I am also a quote collector so I loved those too. I am inspired to read more on this subject. Also I find myself looking for narcissists around me and watching how they live their lives. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BOOK SALES. less

A little repetitive. Maybe a little too optimistic. *audiobook
