Fun questions for our Dream Network

I met your Dad in SFO 2014 at the Castro Theatre where he and Stephen launched "Think Like a Freak"!
I flip through your book when I host our Dream Network where young professionals gather to speed network. Your questions are delightful prompts when they are stumped when starting a conversation with someone they just met! You've helped us all! Thanks, Amanda!!
Take care,
Jean Chow

Can I Ask you a Question

This is such a great conversation starter that is so much better than small talk. We used it at a big family gathering recently and everyone wanted to share their thoughts no matter their age. We will definitely be using it regularly!

Conversations I Wish I Could Have

I wish I had had “Can I ask you a question?” years ago. There were important people in my life with whom I had trouble having a meaningful conversation. They are gone now and I have regrets. I realize this book would have opened up a whole new side of the relationship. Not only do I enjoy using this book with others but I find it interesting to reflect and have conversations with myself!

Brillant

I bought this book after hearing the author's interview with her father on the podcast People I Mostly Admire. After a lifetime of struggling with ways to get beyond the superficial, this is the book I have found most helpful. It is such a clarifying set of questions that are fun, challenging, and engaging to ask myself and others.

This book fixed my 9 year old daughter!

For all the interesting ideas Steven Levitt has brought to my life over the years, he has never given me anything even close to what Amanda has. This book turned my 9 year old daughter into a vibrant and talkative young lady at the dinner table, the polar opposite of the downtrodden curmudgeon she was before—barely grunting an acknowledgment to any of the sincerely interested questions her insufferably dull parents might have for her about her day. I joke, but this really was a great book to help our daughter come out of the Covid shell she’d built around herself. A hearty 5 stars from this Dad.

Charmingly personal

An excellent series of questions that are both disarming and revealing.

can I ask you a question?

This book has been great getting me back into close meaningful conversations with people. During COVID I think many of us lost some of our conversation skills and this book has helped jumpstart conversations that go deeper then just simple politeness.

So simple and so insightful

Have read out questions with in-laws, have read some with mates at the pub, and have read a bunch with my wife. Every time has been a great conversation and just when you think people are getting tired of it someone says "so what's the next question??"

What is your favorite memory of your Mom on her birthday?

The book provides great questions to initiate conversation. However, it is the guidance to formulate my own questions that make the book great.

A fantastic way to get to know someone better.

I really love this book. My wife and I, who have been together 14 years have been going through these questions on our nights out. I kind of thought I knew everything about her, but am finding myself constantly surprised by her answers.

The questions are really well thought through and thought provoking. A big thankyou for many hours of enjoyment and entertainment.

Incredibly thoughtful + thought-provoking questions

You can instantly feel the time, thought, and heart that author Amanda has put into crafting each of these unique and insightful questions. Each one is only a few words, yet holds potential to create an instantly meaningful connection with another person. As a fellow author dedicated to helping people connect, I've come across hundreds of "best questions to ask a friend / your date / a stranger" lists - but the questions in this book are above and beyond any of the standard (and boring!) "get to know you" ones. They provide a whole new level of depth and insight, both for the question asker and the person answering!

Great question on names

I had some great conversations around "Does my name suit me" and "What name could I pull off." It was a lot of fun to think about names that would suit my friends.

As an "Old" - in my 40s - I'd like more non-tech, non-social media, non-music questions. But I'm still in the intro section so maybe I'll get to that as I keep going.
