Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want to Come

Jessica Pan finds herself living in a new country with no job and no friends. She blames her troubles on being introverted, and she sets out on a quest to become more social and happier.

I am a big fan of books in which people set out to become better, research how to do so, and then accomplish the task. And that's the story in this book. In the process of reading the book, I learned a lot about human nature, including “People don't wave, but people wave back,” as well as the importance of deep conversations over small talk. Very fun and very helpful.
