A useful book on assertiveness and how to learn to say no.
It's well written, informative and full of useful advice.
Recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

Sometimes I do have a difficult time saying no and setting boundaries. So I was hopeful to learn some new information or strategies from this book. The book was witty and fun to read but did get a little daunting at times with some of the harsh examples. There are so many useful tips for asserting yourself, and this book may be helpful for those who haven't read any self-help books before about this particular topic.

Overall, it was an informative book with good examples and tips. But, for me, it was challenging to get through and stay invested in this author's writing style.

I would give this book 3.5 stars.

This is a short book on saying no.

If you have trouble saying no to your boss, co-workers, family and friends, this book can give you a lot of templates to help you say no.

My problem with the book was that the author was not very polite in some situations, maybe it's because she didn't have any boundaries earlier and now had to try harder to say no but it's easy enough to say no and be polite at the same time. My boss used to do it all the time. :P

The book could also have been an article. The same things were repeated over and over again.

I received a free book from NetGalley.

Thanks for the ARC. I won't be publishing a public review, because I didn't quite enjoy this read and I prefer to keep my thoughts to myself instead of doing a disservice to the author. But honestly, all her books are the same. Maybe I'm wrong to expect something different, maybe that's her style... But I just don't feel like reading the same things over and over and over again. Maybe that's good for the people who will only buy one of her books... But if she expects to have a loyal public, something needs to change.

While I don't like swearing I have found that the most well-written of these types of book actually use the 'word' to hook you in, and then teach you something about boundaries. This is an excellent example of that. Readable, witty, and most of all - useful. It's a shame that many people won't buy it because of the swearing because it's teaching me some genuinely useful techniques.
