The topics were interesting, but the writing dragged most of the time. It was ridiculously repetitive and went on and on and on and on and... you get my point. The passages could've been much shorter and had the same effect. The authors were completely different people, but they all had the exact same writing style. It was weird, honestly. Still, I learned a lot.
