The topic of STFU intrigued me because I know I'm an overtalker. So the first chapter that explained the way the brain works and the different type of talking was really interesting. Beyond that, the liberal views were too much, and I just couldn't continue. Dan Lyons couldn't keep politics out of it and bashed conservatives using his "over talking". He would reach more people if he took his own advice and STFU.

Thank you to NetGalley and MacMillan Audio for an advanced audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

I really loved this audiobook. It hooked me from the first chapter and kept me hooked the entire time. It was an easy listen!

This is such a quick and easy read. I flew through it. I think if you get one thing that is helpful out of these types of books then they were worth the read. I think I got 4 things that I wrote down to try in my own life. I am really interested in the app he mentions called One Sec. I got it and it's been helpful. I also really like that fact that he started from the bottom, so to speak, and improved. I think this book is not only helpful for professional relationships but also for personal ones. I am going to try to be more silent and go forest bathing!

I would recommend this to a friend.
