The Introvert Advantage is a great book to read that helps readers gain insight on why we are misunderstood, learn to apperciate who we are and how we can use our introvertive characteristics in this extrovert world. I purchased this book a few days ago and it is very helpful and helps me to understand who I am. So to all of the innies I would recommend this book in your home library 
Excerpt from book:
Do you "zone out" if too much is going on? Are you energized by spending time alone? In meetings, do you need to be asked for your opinions and ideas? Do you tend to notice details that other people miss? Is your ideal celebration a small get-together, rather than a big party? Do you often feel like a tortoise surrounded by hares? The good news is, you're an introvert. The better news is that by celebrating the inner strengths and uniqueness of being an "inne" The Introvert Advantage shows introverts, and the extroverts that love them, how to work with instead of against their temperament to enjoy a well-lived life. Covering relationships, parenting including parenting the introverted child socializing, and the workplace, here are coping strategies, tactics for managing energy, and hundreds of valuable tips for not only surviving but truly thriving in an extrovert world.
