It changed my present and the way I view my past.

Very good book, with many backed up statistics from true sources.

Some chapters or parts I skipped because they were not directly connected with the book's title.

Read for book club.  Skimmed last part but read through first 3/4.  Too long and slow for me.

I did not actually finish it. It was too painful, and I wasn’t in the head space for it. It is one of the most profound books I have read and the existential dread to created for me was palpable. Massively important but strap on your big girl pants.

It's a complicated read/listen. However, there is a great deal of education to be found here.
