    About this ebook

    Trapped in an airplane seated next to a chatterbox? Are you hosting a dinner party with people who just won't leave? Katie Vaz has the key to your escape. The Escape Manual for Introverts guides readers through different scenarios with themed chapters ("Friends," "Relatives," "Strangers," etc.). Each chapter covers a range of situations, from an invitation to karaoke night to group lunchtime. And she offers a number of escapes for each scenario: bringing odoriferous foods to lunch for a while, having a pet (real or imagined) that "requires" frequent check-ins, and even investing in a jet pack. This book features Vaz's full-page illustrated spreads, hand-lettering, and spot illustrations. From the silly to the sincere, Vaz's clever, hilarious escape plans and bizarre excuses speak to the introvert in all of us.

      If you have not guessed, I am not an introvert, which is probably why this book isn’t for me. It’s both a joke, and a serious guide on how to get out of events. It tries to cover almost any situation you might encounter, and each situation is it’s own page. I like many of the ideas presented, and would not be offended if my introvert friends used these cues, but as a guidebook, it’s not really for me.August 5
