[Following is a volunteer review of "Niching Up" by Chris Dreyer.]

Many of us want to niche or, in simple words, specialize in a certain field, but do you know what it takes to niche? In the book Niching Up, the author Chris Dreyer tells us what it means to niche and guides us on how to niche successfully. He uses examples of well-known companies and well-known people in their different fields. An example is LeBron James, the world's best basketball player. Chris Dreyer uses him as an example and states that he achieved this by niching in basketball.

There are several things I loved while reading this book. I liked that the author used examples of well-known people while explaining several things. I identified most people used as examples, such as LeBron James, Steve Jobs, Henry Ford, and Samuel L. Jackson, who are well-known today. This made the book interesting and relatable.

I also liked that he mentioned the pros and cons of niching up. This helps the reader know both the advantages and disadvantages of niching up and can weigh the two to come up with a final conclusion on whether to or not to niche. He also says that niching is not for everyone, which is true since not everyone will succeed.

There is nothing I disliked about this book since I learned something new about niching. I didn't know what niching meant or how it's done until I read this book. For the reasons above, I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.

The book seems to have been well-edited since I encountered no errors while reading it. I recommend this book to anyone interested in niching because it will help them determine whether or not they should niche. Anyone who also wants to know what niching is will benefit from this book because it explains what niching is.
