Suggestions for learning social cues, I’m not socially anxious and am considered well liked and approachable.
I am looking for top three books that help you read a room, specifically social situations and social awareness. The underlying intentions and meanings of people and their words.
Most say you either have it or you don’t it’s an intuitive feeling etc. for those of us who can’t what books or strategies work?
I’m social and approachable and don’t have issues connecting or listening but I can’t always understand a social situation or underlying meanings or peoples intentions and this is what I want to improve.
What books do you recommend for the covert socially inept?

One author I’d check out is Jon Caranganee. He has similar books.
Here are three books that might help you sharpen ur social awareness and better understand the underlying dynamics in social situations.
1. **”The Art of Reading Minds” by Henrik Fexeus** This book breaks down how to read body language, tone of voice, and other subtle cues, helping you understand people’s hidden intentions.
2. **”The Power of Body Language” by Tonya Reiman** A great resource to develop your ability to read non-verbal communication, which is a huge part of understanding people in social settings.
3. **”What Every BODY is Saying” by Joe Navarro** Written by a former FBI agent, this book focuses on decoding people’s body language, which often reveals more than their words.
These books provide practical tools and strategies that can help you read a room more effectively and pick up on the covert signals people give off.
