The creator, a self-described author and content creator, recommends three specific books designed to help viewers become 'gloriously overqualified' by improving their habits, professional presence, and social skills. For each book, she provides a brief summary of its core message, shares a personal connection (including having interviewed two of the authors), and explains how it contributes to the overall theme of 'looking put together'.

Three books to read if you wanna become gloriously overqualified, looking put together edition. Because looking put together is actually not about the good, and it's about acquiring these skills. Hi. I'm Amy. I'm a four time author and twenty year content creator just trying to be 1% better every day as a student of life. If that's your thing, follow along. First is Gretchen Rubin's better than before. I've had the great pleasure of interviewing Gretchen myself, and if she's taught me anything, being put together is actually just a bunch of great habits stacked on top of each other. And in this book, you will realize that most of our habits fail because we copied them from someone else and they don't really work for us. So if you wanna find out which ones work best for you and your life, pick this one up. Next is Alyssa Mastromonico's No Here's the Thing. I have actually interviewed Alyssa too. I didn't even do that on purpose. So fun to chat with her. She was president Obama's deputy chief of staff and the youngest woman to ever hold that role. She basically ran the Best Wing and was just trying to figure it out the whole time. So if you have a big job and you need to look put together, this is a great read. And Patricia Altschul's Tier Art of Southern Charm. You don't have to be a Bravo fan to love this. I only picked it up for that reason, but I could not believe how much I loved it. You can tell by all the Kindle highlights, the limit does not exist. There are so many amazing notes to take in terms of making yourself feel put together, making your home feel put together, hostessing in a way that looks very put better, but most importantly, not letting anyone be rude to you at your table. Manners are a skill, and they're worth learning. Save this video and let me know if you want more book recommendations below.
