Well, after reading SOME of it...I didn't finish this book. The personal story interspersed w/ the factual research did not work for me. First, I'm not interested in what some lawyer found while researching the topic. I'm a lawyer, but have a psychology background, too, and I found her discussion of the topic to lack depth and insight. She recites the research and then gives her opinion, but, quite honestly, her perspective is limited and not interesting. Second, her personal story was engaging enough for the first 100 or so pages to inspire me to wade thru the research she recites, and I think it would have been a much better book if she just stuck to her own personal experience, but eventually I lost interest even in that. I found her self-analysis to be wooden and, again, lacking sufficient depth for me. The human psyche is incredibly complex and interesting, and I think there is so much more going on here than she captures. For example, I think different personality types would interpret her research and her experiences differently -- she seems like a 6 on the ennegram, and therefore is more likely to see separation as a threat to survival. A 4 on the ennegram, however, sees being separate as being special. A 4 would have a problem with separation, but it wouldn't trigger the type of fear that she describes. Someone with a psychology background might have probed her experience a little deeper before making conclusions that are not generally applicable. Plus, she seemed to just scratch the surface - at least from the part I read. Whatever -- I hope she ended up happy and satisfied. I can't recommend that you buy this book, however. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Enjoyed it and want to read more. *by A***T on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2017* I picked up this book because I love memoirs and to explore my own deep loneliness. It's definitely less memoir and more scientific which is good because loneliness is a hard subject to grasp and she explains the different types of loneliness as well as the differences between depression, loneliness, introvertedness, etc.I appreciated the scientific part of the book but I definitely would've preferred it to be more memoir and personal but that's just personal preference. I really like the part where she explains that once you get to the point of being anti-social, it's like a deeper hole and you get even more anti-social and that becomes your new comfort zone. I applaud Emily White for writing a book and shedding light on this subject. It's quite scary to admit to close friends/family about this much less write a book and get it published. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ oddly feeling like it's filling in my memory of earlier times *by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2015* I'm only near the beginning of the book but I'm finding it fascinating, oddly feeling like it's filling in my memory of earlier times, like piecing together her life is helping me piece together mine. I like this book. The author writes with passion. Intriguing. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/13987171-lonely-learning-to-live-with-solitude](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/13987171-lonely-learning-to-live-with-solitude) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
