I See Rude People by Amy Alkon






A friend of mine lent me the book because we are always talking about manners and how they used to matter. Well, to some of us they still do and that is what the book is about.

I like how Amy describes her experiences with the rude people and how she handled it. She has dealt with car thieves, telemarketers, rude children with rude parents, cell phone abusers, and more. She encourages people to call others out on their rude behaviors and bring standards back.

The way she writes is as if she has been a friend for years and you are reliving those moments. It is aggressive and pro-active in advice and experiences. Amy has received lots of heat for her words and actions. She definitely has chutzpah.

I read the book in a day. It was one of those ones that you just enjoy.
