hkeogh13's review against another edition

I really enjoyed this. I love the way Danny writes and it was an interesting new way for him to go with his books. I actually learnt quite a lot, and as it's about a topic that impacts everyone, it was also quite insightful for me. Danny starts with a mild disdain for someone who has wronged him and uses it as a starting point for a long and worthwhile academic adventure, travelling across the world and speaking to some rather interesting people.

I'm sure he'd say I'm just being rude but this book honestly was so boring and a challenge to get through! I never stop reading a book once I've started and not since Gullivers Travels have I been so close to quitting.
This book is full of interesting facts, but I didn't want to read 300 page essay. I love Danny Wallace and was expecting at least a few laughs along the way but I honestly just found this book so dull with the occasional slightly interesting thing to think about.
Would have been a great blog post - definitely not enough in it for an entire book.

This book I thought was great - both quite amusing at times and a pretty thoughtful read at other times. Its a relatively easy read that may well get you thinking. I would definitely recommend it. to anyone itnerested in psychology/sociology.
