Reviews

[Alexandria · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5/5: really enjoyed this!! the topics range really widely, so there’s something for everyone. some chapters were super engaging, while others dragged on a bit. even the ones that dragged on were interesting, though, if a little drawn out. a lot of the authors also included phrases and paragraphs in different languages, which are easily googleable, but it takes you out of the book a bit when it happens. i definitely recommend!
