This should be common sense, but I find many people to be lacking it lately.

This is a must-read for the millennials that don't know how to behave like a grown up. Good information with a chapter about mobile phone use.

3.5 stars. Illuminating, there's a number of things I have yet to learn about etiquette, but you got to start somewhere. It's a great introductory guide for anyone intending to host a formal party, dinner or cocktail event with high flyers. It's always good to be well-mannered.

This was a surprisingly interesting read. There's a large discussion about social media and when it is acceptable to use and when it's not. There is also a section titled 'Pretentious or Not' which was funny and entertaining. There are also funny exceptions, like the fact that it may be okay to slather a warm muffin with butter and eat half of it in one bite just because warm muffins are fantastic and other people will understand.

I liked this more at the beginning and less at the end when it started to delve into a humblebrag about traveling.

I think I just didn't like this book because I'm a teenager, therefore I don't drink alcoholic beverages, and this author seemed to like talking about them.

Not a bad guide, but the author comes across as pretentious sometimes.

Short, funny, and easy to understand, as well as to navigate.
