What book to read next based on your Myers-Briggs personality type

These days, there are tons of ways to find a good book recommendation. You could browse Goodreads, scroll through #bookstagram posts, or choose a title based on your zodiac sign. Or, you could pick up a book perfectly tailored to your Myers-Briggs personality type.
Your Myers-Briggs personality type can say a lot about you. It’s the perfect indicator for what book you should read—and will actually enjoy—next. With just four little letters, you can learn a lot about someone’s likes and dislikes.
The Myers-Briggs personality types are determined through four different sliding scales. Everyone is either an “I” (introvert) or an “E” (extrovert) with an “N” (iNtuition) or an “S” (sensing). Then, there’s either “T” (thinking) or “F” (feeling) and “P” (perceiving) or “J” (judging). If you don’t know your Myers-Briggs personality type, take the personality quiz here. It’ll only take a few minutes.
There are 16 Myers-Briggs personalities total, and yes, I came up with 16 unique book recommendations tailored to each one. I can’t help it; I’m an ISFJ. I’m TOO enthusiastic about sharing specific book recommendations that you didn’t ask for, because I just want all of us to have fun and feel taken care of. (Please like me?)
