Really interesting but I think there could have been a bit more depth.

I did it! I finished ModernMrsDarcy.com‘s 2020 42-book Summer Reading Guide. Rumor has it she‘s complying a 41-book Fall Reading Guide too. I always try to read them all and I have been very pleased with most of her picks.

My #bookspinbonanza #doublebookspin pick. I enjoyed this book which delves into personalities. It gives a great overview of several popular personality frameworks, giving a brief description of each. It was just enough information to get me interested in figuring out what mine is and how knowing it could change the way I deal with those around me. I have already requested several of her recommended resources from my library to learn more.

TheAromaofBooks Oooo sounds interesting! I love sorting people into different personality categories! 😂 4y

As a trainer & organizational development person, I love learning about different personality & behavioral styles & what motivates people. This one has been on my Kindle for awhile but I was sure it would have a “motivation” quote.😉

I don‘t think I fully understood what this book was before I read it. Personality types are interesting, but not something I do much digging into myself. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not for me. This is a memoirish overview of personality typing. And it‘s not done very well.

I thought this would be fun for all you #santagoespostalstalkers out there: book picks, What Should I Read Next style. Three books you love, one book you don‘t. I‘ll leave mine & my reasons in the comments, along with some other picks that, in my mind, have the same vibe to them, cause a book nerd can‘t stick to just one pick. 🤓 Play along if you‘d like.

Amandajoy I love this one. A sweeping epic story that covers so many historical events. I don‘t even mind it being a little too coincidental sometimes, I just love a good story you can sink into and lose yourself in. Honorable mentions in this section go to: Lonesome Dove, Homegoing, & Americanah. 6y
Amandajoy This is an engaging story & a little quirky (though that may be a little too sweet a word for this one). I like that it looks at things from a different perspective in a story that keeps the pages turning. Bonus points for the feminist & anti-diet tones in it. Honorable mentions go to: Sourdough, Eleanor Oliohant, & Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk. 6y
Amandajoy I love good non-fiction and this one kept me entertained & had me annoying my fiancé with random facts. I love well researched books with a distinct viewpoint & this one delivered. As a dietitian, I especially loved the diet section which reminded me that the crazy things people do to lose weight is not a new thing. Honorable mentions go to: Lab Girl, Evicted, Just Mercy. 6y
See All 6 Comments
Amandajoy I recognize this is an important piece of genre literature & literature in general, it‘s just not for me. I struggle with the high fantasy books that have a lot of world building. I feel like there‘s s lot of blank spots & I can‘t see the whole picture in my mind. I‘m not saying this is bad, just not for me. 6y
BookNAround I love this! I need to play along but I‘ll have to think about it. 6y
Amandajoy @BookNAround that‘s the beauty of starting it, I got to think awhile first. I also stuck to books I‘ve read in the last few years to make it easier. 😉 6y

This was interesting but I couldn‘t quite love it. It discusses most of the more prominent personality frameworks; the tests, the ideas behind them, and how to work within them to be your best self. I had read most of the books she explores so it was really repetitive for me. But, if the idea of personality and its affect of behavior is new to you, this may be a great book to check out!

I love the way this author breaks down personality typing. She presents a few different styles, like Myers Briggs and explains how they work and how they can help you. She encourages people to use personality typing to learn their strengths and weaknesses and name changes.

I really enjoy following Anne Bogel on social media, so I figured I would like this book, but I didn‘t realize that it would help me to understand myself. That alone makes it worth five stars in my book. Turned out I‘m a highly sensitive person, not just an easily annoyed one. Who knew?! Any book that helps me learn more about myself and others in a way that will make our lives better is worth the read.

Lmstraubie This has been on my shelf since it came our. I really need to get to it. I love her podcast. I currently reading her new one and really enjoying it. 6y

This book was fascinating! It had a bit more of a Christian bent than I expected but otherwise, I really enjoyed it!

Notafraidofwords Really ? I listen to the podcast and I wouldn‘t have guessed that. 6y
Jennie748 @Notafraidofwords It just mentions church a fair amount, and a few bible versus/stories as examples. Maybe one or two God-given type of phrases. It wasn‘t so many that I got annoyed, but enough that I noticed it. 6y
Notafraidofwords @Jennie748 interesting. Thanks for sharing ! 6y

I didn‘t think I was interested in learning about personality — or reading this book — despite being a fan of Anne‘s podcast. I don‘t really know what changed my mind, but I‘m glad I did! The audiobook is great, but I‘m glad I also have the print book to refer to. Lots of footnotes and recommended resources listed — and the MBTI chapter was a bit too complex for just listening. I have lots more to explore now I‘ve had this introduction. #readathon

Within the past 6 months I've gotten into podcasts and Anne's podcast "What Should I Read Next" is one of my faves. When I heard she was writing a book on personality frameworks I knew I'd have to read it, definitely not disappointed. She outlines several frameworks and how she's included them in her life.

BookaholicNatty I love Anne and her podcast!!!! 😍 7y
