How To Kill A Narcissist

I don't really like the title to this book, I don't usually like self-published books, and the first line to the first chapter caused me to roll my eyes. Aside from that, JH Simon has written a pretty helpful book on narcissism. I wish it were more academic and that he had cited sources. Yet, maybe the fact that he didn't makes the book more accessible to some folks who won't read more academic sounding/feeling books.

I appreciate how Simon gives clear descriptions and then offers helpful solutions at the end of the book. Oh, and there was a random John Piper quote at the beginning of a chapter. Not what I was expecting. It was a good quote, and I value John Piper, it is just not what you would expect in a secular book on narcissism. Speaking of this book being secular, I write/think from a Christian world view. As is common with a secular book, there are many lines you will read and disagree with. Yet, much of this book serves as a helpful diagnostic when people are trying to make sense of toxic people in their lives.
