thewoodenfinch 's review for:
Disrupted: My Misadventure in the Start-Up Bubble
by Dan Lyons
I'm split — this is a book written by a douche chastising a douchey culture.
I think living and working in San Francisco for the past several years might take some of the edge and surprise off of what's written here, so maybe that's why it was less effective to me as some sort of critique of the area.
While a lot of this subject matter is true and deserves to be condemned (a hilarious lack of diversity, rampant sexism + ageism, cult-like start-ups, the bizarre way people make money out here), this was rant-y and for me was less enjoyable because I couldn't stand anyone in this book.
