The Antisocial Network: The True Story of a Ragtag of Amateur Investors, Gamers, and Internet Trolls Who Brought Wall Street to Its Knees by Ben Mezrich
I checked this book out because I'm going to see the film Dumb Money. I ended up skimming because it is so boring. OMG fall asleep boring. I didn't find the Gamestop thing interesting when it was happening and I didn't find it interesting in this book. Should I be interested in how the stock market works? Sure. And maybe I should be interested in the underdogs chronicled in this book. But I wasn't. I literally could not make myself understand and get into this book.
I hope I like the movie better.
I must quote this.
"Keith Gill, thirty-four, with high cheekbones, piercing brown-hazel eyes, and a magnificent mane of shoulder-length hair that perhaps tended toward mullet when you saw it from the side, stood in the frozen grass of his postcard-sized lawn, straining his arms to lift his two-year-old daughter onto the top of the plastic slide that squatted in the shadow of his three-bedroom home." (p. 19)
Am I reading a book by a frustrated, wanna be novelist?
No rating because I only skimmed it.
