How to Be Interesting (In 10 Simple Steps)
By (author) Jessica Hagy
Today you can learn how to do just about anything by watching a YouTube video. But what if you just want to find out how to be interesting? No YouTube for that! Instead, try this book.
The author, Jessica Hagy, presents the case that to be interesting you need to get out of your comfort zone. She explores ten simple steps to achieve that goal. Here are a few examples of those steps: Embrace Your Weirdness, Hop Off the Bandwagon, and Grow a Pair!
As you can tell from these chapter titles, the book is written with humor and quirkiness. That quirkiness will keep you interested and that humor will make you laugh to yourself (or maybe out loud). “How To Be Interesting” is filled with charts and graphs and drawings presented in a fun, obtuse, yet educational manner.
I’m not sure who Author Nagy had in mind when writing this book, but I have a few ideas. Anyone who is bored with their life can read this book, follow its lead, and begin to have more adventure. Introverts, who want to venture a little further out into our extroverted world, can read this and strengthen their confidence. If you just ended a relationship, this book can get you back on track for your new life. Finally, read this book if you just want to see a different, and funny, perspective on life.
Therapists can certainly use this book for ideas of new approaches with their clients. I know I will!





I like this! YouTube can show us how to do many things, but it can’t really teach us how to be interesting. A book sounds like a smart idea because it can give tips and new ways to think.

Nice points by Jessica Hagy. Being interesting really means leaving your comfort zone. Just like best cv writers in ireland guides people to try new ways, embracing your weirdness and new steps can make life better
I always wanted people to find me interesting and enjoy talking to me, but I was so busy with my GRE classes and assignments that I had no time left for myself. Then I realized that to truly become interesting, I needed to focus on personal growth along with academics. That’s when I decided to use a do my GRE class service to lighten my study load. It gave me the freedom to explore new skills, follow my hobbies, and have meaningful conversations. That one decision changed everything—now people genuinely enjoy connecting with me.

This really resonates with me. As someone who’s also introverted and passionate about writing, I totally get the anxiety around book launches.

Honestly, having professionals manage the technical side really helped me focus on writing and preparing for the launch.
