I was hoping this would be a little more engaging, like Wordslut was. It felt really repetitive and referred back to the same cults multiple times. I understand that the common ties are important but it was excessive and ultimately became boring. A lot of focus on influencer cult leaders toward the end. I was hoping for some more political references (coughmagacough) although there were a few. Ultimately, if you are fascinated by cults it is worth the read but it didn't WOW me!
