101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think by Brianna Wiest
1.0
DNF for me. I got about halfway through and I just can’t do it anymore. This is actually the first book I’ve ever not finished so that’s unfortunate. I cannot begin to tell you how unbelievably repetitive this book is. It got to the point where even the author knew she was repeating herself a lot by saying “one more time for the people in the back”. Like eeek we heard you the first 10 times.
There were tons of situations that I couldn’t relate to. I didn’t expect to relate to everything obviously but it was alarming how it was tailored to a specific type of person.
And lastly….was there an editor at all for this book? The amount of typos was actually unreal. SO many in addition to the constant run on sentences and poor sentence structure.
Examples:
“I have personally have spent years trying to figure out..”
(One too many haves and personally is unnecessary)
“The thing about the things”
(I just cannot)
I’m actually so mad I wasted time reading this. It was mostly fluff. Seemed like the author wanted the sentences to sound smart by throwing in a bunch of big words that just made the sentence sound off. Not a fan (: sorry!
