2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing useful or path breaking in this book, September 29, 2005

This review is from: Talk to Me: Conversation Tips for the Small-Talk Challenged (Paperback)
Title of the book is misleading. I thought it would help me with "small talk" but there are only 4-5 pages about that. ALL of the book is common sense stuff with nothing special to help you in small talk situations.

This review is from: Talk to Me: Conversation Tips for the Small-Talk Challenged (Paperback)
I geuss maybe I didn't quite understand the description of this book because it was not what I expected. The different chapters gave examples of what could be said in one-on-one conversations. It did not help me as much as some other books such as "Conversationally Speaking". If you need help with conversation skills and social anxiety disorder, this is not the book for you.
