Literary Lane

  Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars I really appreciate how this addressed the unnecessary stigma that introverts receive, particularly in american culture but also to a slightly lesser extent in the UK (which essentially copies america's culture), with introverts always being seen as a "problem" by society and told to be "more extroverted". I know how sick to death I am and how much it infuriates me when seeing articles and books that say "How introverts can become more extroverted/a people person", essentially telling us that our introversion is something that needs fixing and that we can't be ourselves, undermining the very concept of self-acceptance. It really did touch upon some interesting points that I know resonated with me quite a lot. However, it did just annoy me a bit when it said in one chapter that she can understand why introverts can come across as being "a bit of a bitch" to some people (female ones at least). I do not like this...
