Do you have a vivid inner world of thoughts and emotions that your peers and loved ones can't seem to access? Have you ever been told you're too "quiet," "shy," "boring," or "awkward"? Are your habits and comfort zones questioned by a society that doesn't seem to get the real you? If so, you might be an introvert.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Jenn Granneman is among the most sensitive and thoughtful introvert authors today . . . <i>The Secret Lives of Introverts</i> brings to life the experiences every introvert shares and helps us embrace our quiet nature in a very loud world." <br><b>--Susan Cain, author of <i>Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can't Stop Talking and creator of Quiet Revolution</i></b><br> "Introverts love secrets, and here, Jenn Granneman opens us to a rich world of them--secrets about what introverts think, desire, and feel; how our brains operate; why we get hangovers without drinking; how to navigate love and work; and what liberates us.

She has advocated for introverts since 2013, when she created <i>IntrovertDear.com</i>, the popular online community and publication for introverts. For most of her life, she felt weird, different, and out of place because of her quiet ways; now, she writes about introversion because she doesn't want other introverts to feel the way she did. Her writings on introversion have appeared in <i>The Huffington Post</i>, <i>Psychology Today</i>, and Susan Cain's <i>Quiet Revolution</i>, among others. Jenn lives in Minnesota, and no, she doesn't want to go out this weekend. <br><b>Adrianne Lee</b>, illustrator, is a creative techie who enjoys telling stories through her whimsical and witty cartoons. Her work combines Manga-style drawing with smart-but-subtle humor. When she is not indulging her need to tell stories with a humorous twist, Adrianne can be found drinking too much coffee and sorting through her options for her next "big idea".
