The Blurb On The Back:

Get noticed and get ahead!


All too often, introverts get passed over for job offers and promotions while their more extroverted colleagues get all of the recognition. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In Self-Promotion For Introverts, business communication coach and intrepid introvert Nancy Ancowitz helps introverts tap into their quiet strengths, articulate their accomplishments and launch an action plan for gaining career advancement. You will learn to:

- promote yourself without bragging – when networking, on job interviews and at work;

- use your quiet gifts (writing, research and listening) to your advantage;

- be a commanding presenter, despite your quieter nature;

- formulate your best plans, set goals, take action – and even find a better job.

Featuring exclusive advice from Warren Buffet, Bill Clinton, Hearst Magazines president Cathie Black, and marketing guru Seth Godin, Self-Promotion For Introverts helps you progress inward, outward and onward.


The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

It’s a very US-focused book and there isn’t anything particularly original about the tips and suggestions on offer. However, it does bring together basic presentation and job interview techniques which will offer a good primer for introverts looking for tips for the first time.
The Blurb On The Back:

A meteorite has struck earth without warning, unleashing a deadly alien virus. Thousands fall victim ... but not Sarah and Robert.

Instead they develop strange side effects – psychic abilities. And that makes them a target for HIDRA, a rogue international agency determined to turn them into lab rats, just like the other kids they’ve already captured – kids who can control fire, create storms and tear steel with their minds.

If they can work together, these kids might stand a chance against HIDRA ...

Superpowers and conspiracy collide in this unmissable, action-packed sci-fi thriller.


The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

A fast-paced addition to the genre of YA paranormal superhero books, this is an entertaining read that has fun with its subject matter.
