The Age of Magical Overthinking: Notes on Modern Irrationality by Amanda Montell

informative fast-paced

2.75

I figured I'd give this a listen on audiobook after reading Cultish. I found the two to be very similar in that Montell has hit on a very interesting topic and gives the reader a survey-level understanding of what's going on with no clear, central thesis.

Like Cultish, the writing is coherent and accessible, but doesn't provide any deep insight or new information about our overthinking or information overload in this age.
