內容簡介
當一位害羞的內向者強迫自己過著一年外向者的人生，到底是福還是禍？
「有趣、鼓舞人心且值得深思，獻給每個期望突破自我舒適圈的讀者。」─《Heat》
作者Jessica Pan意識到自己不但失業還沒什麼朋友，終日坐在沙發發呆耍廢的她，不禁想起如果她對人生中的新體驗和新朋友更加開放，去酒吧比回家的時間更多，生活又會是什麼樣子？
所以，她立下一個誓言，讓自己活得像外向者一年。她寫下幾個必須完成的事項：即興生活、一個人過節，還有…在地鐵上和陌生人聊天。
但執行後她很快就後悔了。
When she found herself jobless and friendless, sitting in the familiar Jess-shaped crease on her sofa, she couldn't help but wonder what life might have looked like if she had been a little more open to new experiences and new people, a little less attached to going home instead of going to the pub.
So, she made a vow: to push herself to live the life of an extrovert for a year. She wrote a list: improv, a solo holiday and... talking to strangers on the tube. She regretted it instantly.
Sorry I'm Late, I Didn't Want to Come follows Jess's hilarious and painful year of misadventures in extroverting, reporting back from the frontlines for all the introverts out there.
But is life actually better or easier for the extroverts? Or is it the nightmare Jess always thought it would be?
