Finished Quiet by Susan Cain, finally - shared this as my read here some time ago. As a textbook introvert it wasn’t exactly an easy read, emotionally, for me - so often had to put the book down to deal with all the emotions, to process the catharsis or to grieve for what past-me had to go through. But ultimately it was quite a positive read, though I wouldn’t say that I agree with everything in the book - especially speaking from a professional perspective, personally I did find a lot of affirmation and validation from the book. I mean, just this morning I declined an invitation to a dinner party with just a slight hint of guilt, haha!
Reading something of an entirely different feel currently - had to go for something ‘light’ after the previous read. The Man Who was Saturday, a biography of Airey Neave.
