Shhh… by Amber Potts


In the back of the English classroom sits a girl who never says much aloud. As the girl approaches the podium to share her writing piece with her peers, her heart begins to beats rapidly. Never speaking much, she opens her mouth and her words start to flow out like a rushing river. Shocked faces begin to arise in the audience; they cannot believe that such powerful words could come from a girl who remains silent in the back of the room. In the non-fiction book QUIET by Susan Cain, she goes into depth to demonstrate to her audience the amazement that introverts have brought upon our society. Cain uses some commonly known historical figures to illustrate and prove her point that introverts are just as equally important as extroverts. This book is definitely a 5 star book because Cain pleads her argument in a way the average reader can understand and does not leave anything unsaid. She makes sure that by the end of the book you know the difference between your average extrovert and your insecure yet very inspiring introverts. I would recommend this book to those who are engrossed in psychology because you really learn a lot about the way people act and why they act the way they act.
