Summary
In this groundbreaking audiobook, clinical social worker and psychotherapist Sandy Hotchkiss shows you how to cope with controlling, egotistical people who are incapable of the fundamental give-and-take that sustains healthy relationships. Exploring how individuals come to have this shortcoming, why you get drawn into their perilous orbit, and what you can do to break free, Hotchkiss describes the "Seven Deadly Sins of Narcissism" and their origins. You will learn to recognize these hallmarks of unhealthy narcissism - shamelessness, magical thinking, arrogance, envy, entitlement, exploitation, bad boundaries - and to understand the roles that parenting and culture play in their creation.
Whether the narcissist in question is a coworker, spouse, parent, or child, Why Is It Always About You? provides abundant practical advice for anyone struggling to break narcissism's insidious spread to the next generation and for anyone who encounters narcissists in everyday life.

Highly recommended
An incredibly interesting look at the psychology of family/relationships, in particular the descriptions of narcissistic traits and how they can impact people.

The narrator sounds like a robot
The narration really sounds like text-to-speech. She REALLY sounds like a robot. I went and double check whether it was an actual human and I was astonishing to found out that in fact she was human. Astonishing! I could have got the same by buying the eBook and listening to it via Kindle text-to-speech.

Good, but no as good as Toxic Parents
This book contains quite a few really helpful insights, but I'd recommend reading Susan Forward's Toxic Parents before reading this book.
Overall, I'm glad I read it, but the narrator, Amanda Carlin, has the most sleep inducing voice. I recommend listening on 1.5 speed.
