The pacing of the Ravenor books was... odd. A lot of plot threads come together in the end but most get wrapped up in like five pages total.

Some good parts but weirdly obsessed with elon musk and class instagram meme-tier class politics analysis

My only criticism is that I wanted it to be longer.

A fast paced and easy read chock full of great ideas, some of which I wish were expanded on more.

When he said he still was open to a job at NBC at the end I almost screamed.

Got about 50 pages in and quit. Short on intrigue and long on meandering anecdotes and racism.

ya needs to come with a warning label. i clearly need to do more research before reading

what the fuck

An unexpectedly hilarious and shocking look into one of the weirdest, most driven psychopaths in the Valley and his gaggle of hangers-on, flunkies, handlers, and investors.

Bogged down by pages of conversations about god knows what but still endlessly entertaining and original

this definitely has middle child syndrome and is bogged down by the prose more than the first

Dumb as hell

Funny as expected but something got lost in translation, this felt a lot less coherent than the podcast.

Very interesting, but doesn't quite feel fully baked in some regards.

Excellent graphic biography that balances accurate retelling with crafting a compelling story well.

a nice general overview of the 2007 crisis but a bit all over the place and has a bizarre section that blames liberalism for the 90s crime spike

absolutely batshit. Loved it.

Good information but extremely dry and the desgin of the book was suprisingly bad given the subject matter. The last 1/4 is just extra information tacked on, and on many pages you need to flip, sometimes multiple times, to see a referenced image. There's also a frustrating lack of specifics throughout.

Really interesting and quick read that packs a lot of ideas into a small and readable package!

man this really just kept going

I initially wasn't sure how I felt about this book. The ending fell flat for me, it didn't click well. But over a year later I still think about 1Q84 and vividly remember details from it - I don't remember anything from some books I read in 2018. The best thing I can say is that this book is relentlessly original and has a stronger emotional through-line that I could have anticipated.

this was spectacular i wish catholics were real

very interesting but very academic

Wtf i love romance novels now

Great art but very short - feels like a lot goes unsaid and I would have appreciated more explanation
