zombiezami's review against another edition

adventurous challenging informative inspiring tense medium-paced

4.25

I liked this much more than Oluo's previous book. I thought that the premise and execution were well done. Oluo ties a lot of disparate threads together under this theme. I will say, however, that the beginning and ending of the book were stronger and clearer than the middle.
