Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Can Tell Us about Who We Really Are by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz
3.0
I thought this was interesting, but if internet searches of pornographic terms makes you nervous, this might not be the book for you.
I listened to this on audiobook and the author tried to lighten up the data-heavy content with some humor. I appreciated this, but it probably could have been more successful if he had been the one reading his own audiobook. Instead, it felt like most of his jokes fell flat through the deliver of a near robotic-like narrator who inexplicably pronounced words weird. I wish I had written them down, but the one that I remember was "doppelganger" which I pronounce "dah..." and the narrator pronounce "doe." Is this some regional thing? It was distracting.
Honestly the narrator and lack of engagement really brought this down for me, otherwise it probably would have been a little higher of a rating.
