The Bomber Mafia: A Story Set in War by Malcolm Gladwell
2.0
I find Malcolm Gladwell's writing style and research fascinating.
I've always been a big fan of his books.
I just couldn't get into this one.
I'm not a big fan of war or history, and this book was them both - and some.
Enjoyed the writing and the stories, but I just didn't find it interesting.
If this is your first Gladwell book, put it back on the shelves and grab [b:Outliers: The Story of Success|3228917|Outliers The Story of Success|Malcolm Gladwell|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1344266315l/3228917._SX50_.jpg|3364437] or [b:The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference|2612|The Tipping Point How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference|Malcolm Gladwell|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1473396980l/2612._SY75_.jpg|2124255] instead.
All in all, it was short, fell flat for me, and was particularly boring.
I'll still definitely check out more future books of his though!
2.6/5
