Founder of a global etiquette school and star of her own Netflix series, Sara Jane Ho teaches readers how to thrive socially in a variety of situations.

"With her remarkable wit and profound understanding, she serves as an exceptional mentor, showing us all how to navigate life with confidence and grace." ―Drew Barrymore

Etiquette, Sara Jane says, is the glue that holds society together. Humans are social creatures, after all--we need connection to survive. But with global cultures in flux and the post-pandemic digital age, shadow epidemics of anxiety and loneliness are on the rise. Plus, the old rules of "decorum" don't match the times.

Amidst all this withdrawal and change, social growth can feel out of reach. How do we leave the comfort of our homes, step away from our screens, and interact face to face? How do we create genuine bonds with people we've just met, and how do we maintain those ties throughout our lives? Even the most resilient social butterflies among us face sticky situations--from accidentally-sent invites to unruly work and family encounters--any advice would help.

In her signature cheeky yet pragmatic style, Sara Jane Ho imparts a lifetime's worth of lessons, pro-tips, and FAQs on social and digital etiquette across the five main microcultures in our lives:

• Friendship & Social Life
• Work
• Dating & Relationships
• Family
• Food & Travel

From jumping everyday hurdles to discerning unspoken, cross-cultural cues, Mind Your Manners helps us feel the joy and transformation of social fluency--that deep comfort that comes from connection, inclusion, and presenting our best self in any situation.

"Sara Jane is the brilliant friend you wish you had--the one who intuitively knows the answers to your most awkward problems. In Mind Your Manners, she draws on her global perspective, empathy, practicality, and sense of humor to share that skill and help you develop it for yourself." ―Vivienne Tam, fashion designer
