  • Easy read packed with amazing and powerful insights
“Read People Like a Book” is one of the best books I’ve ever read. What I appreciated the most is how it gets straight to the point without a lot of filler. I prefer books that are direct and concise, and this one truly delivers. The book provides practical techniques for understanding non-verbal cues and reading body language, such as the importance of eye contact, mirroring behavior, and recognizing micro-expressions. Despite being packed with this valuable information, it’s an easy read—I finished it in just two days because I was so engaged. The insights on how to interpret people’s intentions and emotions are both informative and entertaining. Absolutely love it! Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a straightforward and insightful guide to understanding human behavior ... show more

  • Great Book, Poor Editing
I thoroughly enjoyed this read. King is incredibly insightful, making sure that the reader identifies that each of the skills/lessons/techniques discussed should be used in conjunction with one another, not as a “one stop solution”. The way that the book progresses makes it a fairly easy read. Each chapter builds off the next. The editing has plenty of room for improvement. The book was printed with larger text and wide margins which is not really an issue, just something I don’t see often in these types of books. There is at least one typo/grammatical error in every chapter. Going so far as that there was a “>” instead of a “?” at the end of a sentence. The typos were fairly major, sometimes where an entire word would be missing from a sentence. Not a major issue but a bit of a nuisance. Finally, I would say once every 2 pages there would be a line where the space between words was similar to that of pressing tab in between each word. Overall a great read and very useful book, I already ordered another book from this series. ... show more
