Doppelganger by Naomi Klein
dark

reflective
5.0
This is one of those books where I'd have to pause at the end of some paragraphs, put the book down, and stare into space while saying "huh" out loud. I don't do that very often when I read.
I think it'd be easy to be dismissive of this book and say, "Well, I already know how terrible everything in the world is; I don't need to read this book," but man, many ways Klein analyzes doppelgangers and applies this phenomenon to our current society and our history is fascinating, thoughtful, and often funny. This book got REALLY dark at points, and it's a tough read overall, but it's worth it.
