this book was either written for stupid people or men.

[Siarl · Rating 2 out of 5]

Before reading this book, I read a review on it that said: “this book was either written for stupid people or men.” Which made me both LOL and want to read the book.

My take away of the key points the Author asserts are:
1. Rather than try to passively detect lies, actively steer (manipulate?) conversation so liars reveal themselves.
2. Rely on your gut feeling to read people accurately.

I got a laugh from that earlier reviewer, and I understand her point. How to Read People Like a Book is best suited for someone who desperately desires to gain situational advantage over everyone they interact with. It’s not particularly helpful to an emotionally intelligent person.

3/10.

Some decent insight on how to read/analyze body language but otherwise this book was so lame.

He had a whole chapter talking about personality tests and quizzes. Very surface level stuff tbh.

Maybe a good read if you’re in High School or severely lack social intelligence

[Jolanta · Rating 2 out of 5]

Yet another so-called self help book where a so-called author quotes smart people, mostly psychologists and well known authors who actually had some knowledge about the topic. I would call this an essay on the subject rather than a book one should spend his money on. The guy adds little if nothing of his own ideas. Buy C.G. Jung instead or other authors he quotes and uses as a reference if you’re looking for something serious. If you are not a fan of reading and simply want an easy brief on the subject, go for this one. I do not recommend it, though.

[Madison Fenzl · Rating 2 out of 5]

Good information but ONE HUNDRED PERCENT a self published book with terrible margins, outrageously large text and randomly widely spaced words throughout which made it murder to read lol 😷

[Erlinda Pysqyli · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book is so dumb. It's just full of plagiarism with no proper citations. I guess anyone can write a book these days by copying stuff from the internet and articles.

[Evinpinar · Rating 3 out of 5]

I've read that book because I sometimes have difficulties understanding people's intentions.
Overall, it is a fun book to read which touches on psychology and personality type studies like MBTI and Keirsey. I don't agree with some parts which involve stereotyping, but overall the main message is 'look for the context, then try to understand people'.

[Gohnar23 · Rating 3 out of 5]

I would give this book a 'too simple and surface level but it advertises itself as one of those manipulate ppl cuz u know dark psychology' out of 10 coconuts. It basically is literally just explaining those myers briggs personality test and gives brief information about body language, i mean yeah these things are important but this book doesn't really add anything new to the table.

[Melissa · Rating 4 out of 5]

I learned a lot of insight about body language from this book. Some information was material I'd already learned in psychology classes, and some could be thought of as "common sense," but common sense isn't necessarily obvious for everyone.

[blanca · Rating 1 out of 5]

so, besides taking a 30 minute long test on how to read peoples emotions - this book either gave me anger issues because of a LOT sexist and misogynistic statements or gave me trust issues in men.

besides the quiz and some valid points concerning the personality test “OCEAN” this whole book is common sense.

love the “this book was written for stupid people or men” comment lol

[Emma Hoel · Rating 1 out of 5]

You don’t need to read this book. You already know all of this by just existing in your own life and interacting with others on a daily basis. I finished the book and it summed up things I already knew. It was a very easy read tho. That’s why I give it one star.

[Jess · Rating 3 out of 5]

Why do I keep listening to Booktok…

[philine · Rating 1 out of 5]

zero depth and repeats itself endlessly. just bad

[Yasmine gamal · Rating 1 out of 5]

سطحي اووي وممل ومطلعتش منه بحاجه والحمد لله اكتشفت اني مش لوحدي ...

[Power In Books · Rating 1 out of 5]

Completely garbage 🤮

[Raquel Figuesans ❾¾ · Rating 1 out of 5]

Ufffffff ... Muy genérico, el autor quiso decir muchas cosas en pocas paginas y no profundiza en nada, podría resumirse en "fijate en todo" pero no explica más allá de cada cosa. Parece un artículo de Google más que un libro, esperaba más.

Tal vez si no sabes absolutamente nada de lenguaje corporal etc puede ayudarte a entrar en el tema

[Nadine · Rating 1 out of 5]

Super boring and superficial

[Živilė Matijaškienė · Rating 3 out of 5]

Personally the book didn't impact me too much.

But it did get my attention on the "Expression of the Shadow" - it truly intrigued me and allowed me to research this topic more.

I do believe that even if you take one small thing out of the book - it is already a success.

I do think the audience here should be a younger more inexperienced readers as many of the things discussed in a book I personally learned in work/education and life.

But nevertheless, it had good points, examples and further research links.

[Eve Ringuette · Rating 2 out of 5]

2,5/5
C'est intéressant, mais beaucoup d'informations qui me semblent logiques et basiques. Peut être pertinent pour les gens qui sont socialement malaisant ou peu conscient des nombreux éléments qui influencent le quotidien.

[Danielle Paquette-Harvey · Rating 3 out of 5]

I'd say some of the tips given by the book are good, but overall it doesn't go deep enough.

[Fabiola Llama · Rating 4 out of 5]

Finished in a day so 4 stars

[Valerie · Rating 1 out of 5]

You don’t really need a manual on how to read people like a book. Research, observe, analyze. Repeat.

[Paolaaamn · Rating 2 out of 5]

Realmente me quedan unas 40 páginas para terminarlo pero me rindo. Hasta ahora no siento que me haya dicho nada nuevo, simplemente se dedica a decir que se puede leer y saber cómo es una persona por sus expresiones faciales y su postura corporal (gracias por la información que casi todo el mundo sabe) pero no dice cómo hacerlo.

[Cesar Loya · Rating 5 out of 5]

Definitely a great book for analyzing a person

This was a solid book.
This book kept me engaged the entire time.
It was insightful as to how to interpret: facial expressions (micro and macro) , social media accounts, word choice , trivial hypothetical questions that reveal a person's values , morals and mindset. If you study this book, you'll be pretty decent at analyzing others.

[Brittany · Rating 3 out of 5]

2.5 Had some interesting parts especially towards the end but the constant reminders that reading people isnt an exact science became very grating. I also would have appreciated references to studies and other sources of information to delve into sections deeper.

[Em read_em_andweep · Rating 1 out of 5]

Basically the shit superficial parts of my psych degree. The guy reading the Audio book is incredibly boring and has no emotion to his tone, which is ironic given that Patrick discusses that in his book.

[Luca Jones · Rating 1 out of 5]

It’s all common sense.

[Eman Abdulaziz · Rating 1 out of 5]

Very disappointing, it’s not solid. The topics being covered are generic.

[Henry · Rating 1 out of 5]

What a bunch of horseshit.

[Melissa · Rating 2 out of 5]

I couldn't finish it. I enjoyed the first part of the book and then I just couldn't like the book. Pretty much anything he says that you can use to help understand people, you also can't use it because it may be situational. What kind of contradicts itself in the sense of it's trying to teach you to understand and read people better, but everything he tells you is circumstantial, you have to have enough data points, you have to know people well enough to interpret things correctly.. And you still might be wrong. The book seems a little useless to write because you can never fully read people without understanding.

He gives some tips to be a little Sherlock Holmes, But nothing that is actually really useful.
