REVIEW: This is another book that was requested to read more than once … it’s that good. Eye-opening in how relationships can be manipulated and how you can influence people. Even in the second reading, it felt like we were reading the book for the first time. Funny what stories stick out in your mind over others. This is another good one to have in your library.
