The book sounds repetitive after the two others I've read on the topic, and there are too many examples.

Good information throughout, though the book does read heavy and clunky at times, very much dry-textbook type.

It's a good book. I liked it. It points out fundamental things for a brand to stay alive in this generation. However, not every piece of advice is true for every country. For instance, Z generation is said to be open to new ideas and much more tolerant. In Turkey, that's not the case.
