The Four Tendencies

Read by the author, this audiobook delivers a thorough examination of how and why we make our daily choices. Gretchen Rubin explains her well-researched, home-grown four-tendencies matrix in a conversational tone. Her casual style gives listeners the sense they're hearing advice while having a cup of coffee with a friend. Rubin uses changes in pitch and speed to help to differentiate the many anecdotes sprinkled throughout the book. Fans of her podcast, "Happier," will be familiar with her engaging manner and obvious excitement as she explores the differences between rebels, obligers, upholders, and questioners. For those who follow her work, this will be a title to save and return to for guidance. M.R. � AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
