Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want to Come: One Introvert's Year of Saying Yes
Summary
What would happen if a shy introvert lived like a gregarious extrovert for one year? If she knowingly and willingly put herself in perilous social situations that she'd normally avoid at all costs?
Writer Jessica Pan intends to find out. With the help of various extrovert mentors, Jessica sets up a series of personal challenges (talk to strangers, perform stand-up comedy, host a dinner party, travel alone, make friends on the road, and much, much worse) to explore whether living like an extrovert can teach her lessons that might improve the quality of her life.
Chronicling the author's hilarious and painful year of misadventures, this audiobook explores what happens when one introvert fights her natural tendencies, takes the plunge, and tries (and sometimes fails) to be a little bit braver.

Interesting read for introverts who don't say yes often and find themselves being recluses.
I found this book really interesting at first and then it got a little long and I was wishing that it would end already lol. I was getting kind of sick of the stories. but I did find it very interesting how much the author put herself out there and what she learned in the end and how she became a version of herself that she liked better
I liked the book ok but felt it went really slow. Had to listen on 1.2 speed. Overall I was encouraged to be brave and do the next hard thing.
This book was so unexpected and perfect. Unlike other “I did this for a year” type books she shared her research and hilarious stories. Every chapter was great and I started to put into practice in my own life. Listening to this read by the author was the best!
Really great read. This book is helping me overcome my introverted tendencies and has taught me that talking to strangers is ok.
