What Your Mother Should've Told You and Nobody Else Will

ebook
4 of 4 copies available
4 of 4 copies available

A collection of answers for 21st-century dilemmas, from the seemingly minor—like in-flight etiquette, to the top 10 lessons of life—including how to survive a set-back

For anyone who has ever lost sleep over how to properly end a friendship, wondered how to recover from an e-mail faux pas at work, or longed to appear smarter at a dinner party, here is the book with the answers. It is an ironic fact that in this time of nonstop communication, the potential for social blunders has never been quite so ripe. Here at last is a collection of advice on modern manners, solutions for old-fashioned conundrums, and everything in between. These are all the things your mother should have taught you, but if she didn't (or you didn't listen), this book will.

      Knowing how to behave in a variety of situations and handle difficult ones with aplomb improves confidence and self-esteem, but it's not always easy to find good advice on modern life. Reilly (deputy editor, Sunday Life) has put together a compact etiquette guide to handle what she sees as gaps in common knowledge in the areas of travel, social media, family, tricky situations, and much more. The situations she addresses include politely refusing advice, relating to your ex's friends, and appearing smarter. Reilly even gives instructions for untagging Facebook photos. It's a fun, chatty book, perfect for browsing or keeping on hand to peruse during a traffic jam. Librarians and readers can't miss with this one.
