Have you ever felt nervous about going to a social event? Is it hard for you to start a conversation with new people? Do you sometimes feel like others don't get what you're trying to say? Do you often think too much about what you said after a conversation? If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then this book is definitely for you.

"Social Skills Success for Young Adults" by Dallas Brennan is an effective book for people struggling with communication, anxiety, networking, self-compassion, finding a balance between online and offline life, and so on. This book covers many topics, like social anxiety disorder, digital communication, covering workplace conflicts, emails, social media presence, and more. In this book, the author reminds us that there is no quick fix or magic pill to solve our problems. It is a step-by-step process with patience and self-care. Thus, the author aims to help people foster a deeper understanding of themselves and their triggers.

Each chapter in this book is precise and filled with warmth. The author reminds us that we are not alone on this journey and also informs us that we need to apply what we learned through this book in our lives rather than looking at it like a fact and moving on to the next one. I applied this strategy and found the engaging exercises and key lessons to be very helpful. What resonated with me the most was the topic ‘Identifying and communicating your boundaries’. I didn’t realize how important setting boundaries was, and until now, I thought it was something to feel guilty about. I learned about how important self-compassion and kindness are.

Additionally, the author also shares tips on how to become a LinkedIn networking master, which is a very important step in career advancement. And also shares real-life examples of those who have faced or suffered from social anxiety, like Emma Watson, the “Harry Potter” star who became famous as Hermione Granger, and Lady Gaga, a famous singer and actress.

Overall, the book was a great help with understanding things in a new light. I rate it 5 out of 5. There's nothing I dislike about this book, and the book is professionally edited. This book is a must-read for people struggling with networking, which is a must in today's advancing world. I also recommend this book to introverts, job seekers, college students, and new professionals.

Social events are hard on everyone. But not being able to strike up a conversation with anyone might be the result of different things. It's not always anxiety. Maybe the person is just bored! Regardless, it was a sweet read!

I don't know much about networking and feel that I could use a crash course on it. I am retired now, but I remember that in my teens I would have answered "yes" to all of your questions. I am curious to know what tips the author would have given me back then. This will be an interesting read.

[Priya Murugesan]

A well-written review! I believe this book would help me as I am a little introverted! Thanks for your review!

[Stephen Christopher 1]

Books like these need to be included in school curriculums. Introducing teens to self-help books of this caliber at school gives them a heads-up on adulting.

[Sarah Zain]

There are many ideas covered in the book.M I've been through most of them so I can relate to something here. I liked having tips To have compassion for yourself and know what can trigger us. Great review

[Neha Panikar]

Basis the title of the book, I didn't think I needed to read this book but basis the contents you described it has, feels like a must-read. I like how this also has prompts for real-life application and is not just a theoretical book of advice.
Thankyou for the review!

[Rajaee R]

I am an introvert myself, and maybe this book can do something good for me.
Thanks for the review.

[Julie Marie Basil]

This sounds like a very helpful book for anyone seeking to improve their networking and communication skills.

Social skills are essential. I always like to learn about this topic, although I rarely put it into practice. My way of proceeding is multifaceted. I can charm an entire audience or simply remain without attracting attention at all. I have to find the balance in that hahaha

[Chi Chiu Michael Mak]

Social skills are like muscles. If you want to get good, you have to put yourself out there every day like you're working out. The book has all the knowledge and the push needed for the anxious and nervous to take action and get people to listen to you.

[Seetha E]

Yes to all your questions. With the people in my inner circle, I say the only good thing about the COVID phase was the isolation. Socializing is not easy, if not difficult. I am curious to see what the author has to say to people like me. Thanks for your informative review @Anu Anand.
