Let me know if you review it!<br /><br /><b>Brogan</b>, let me know if you get around to reading this book; I'd love to discuss it with you. I'm surprised you scored higher than me on the introvert quiz!<br /><br /><b>Donna</b>, my feeling is that introverts tend to find each other, because I'm sure that more than 25% of the people I know are introverted!<br /><br /><b>Jenners</b>, I suspect that blogging tends to attract introverts, especially in the book blogging community.<br /><br /><b>Diane</b>, welcome to the club!<br /><br /><b>Carin</b>, I'd definitely go for the ice cream and good book! I wondered about that too (about introverts appearing as extroverts); as I said to Donna, I figure introverts also tend to clump together, which may be why we think there are more of us.<br /><br /><b>Lynne</b>, thank you for drawing my attention to that book (and your review). I'll have to check to see if my library has it.avisannschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12486477882148877317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861558236080696007.post-10420684153127443032010-03-17T11:17:26.974-04:002010-03-17T11:17:26.974-04:00I'm a total introvert!

Last year I read <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/731284.The_Happy_Introvert_A_Wild_and_Crazy_Guide_for_Celebrating_Your_True_Self" rel="nofollow">and did a short review on Goodreads</a>, of another great book called The Happy Introvert.<br /><br />Thanks for your review. I'll have to check this book out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926593497861922526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861558236080696007.post-5635394320665452052010-03-16T23:08:15.939-04:002010-03-16T23:08:15.939-04:00A friend told me a very simple, one sentence quest...A friend told me a very simple, one sentence question to answer the I/E question:<br /><br />-at the end of a horrible day when you screwed up and your boss yelled at you, do you want to go out with friends and commisserate, or go home and curl up with ice cream and a good book? <br /><br />I don't agree witht he 75% number - I think a lot of introverts have worked hard to appear more outgoing. However, as I am a book person, my view may be considerably skewed. The book biz of course is filled with introverts, and yet we manage to happily get along!<br /><br />This book sounds fascinating. Thanks for getting it on my radar.Carin Siegfriedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07278383926500248048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2861558236080696007.post-16774049208385651502010-03-16T22:42:06.756-04:002010-03-16T22:42:06.756-04:00I read this a while back and enjoyed it.
