Felt repetative & wasn't super helpful (for me)

3 stars

As others have said, this probably could have been slimmed down a little more for ease of remembering. The "rules" tend to be very similar so it would be easy to get them confused while trying to impart what you learned into real life.

I also just didn't have a lot to take away from this. I was raised to be a people-pleaser so a lot of the suggestions I have already implemented in my life without having a direct name for it or realizing why I do it. It gave me a little more clarity, but that was it.

Interesting book

4 stars

I learnt a lot about dealing with people from this book. Still, many principles were quite repetitive.

Started off really strongly, but quickly became boring

3 stars

As the book went on, it became more of a chore to read. There are a lot of good ideas in the book, but I feel as though there are too many similar examples that have the same results and very few will stick with me.
