jimalsi 's review for:

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

1.0

---

I had thought, at first, although it did not seem to get any better, at the very least it could match the bare minimum of my expectation. But no, as I got by, it was hard work finishing it; I barely skimmed the last half of it. One thing I am disappointed the most from the book is how enormously tone-deaf it is to systemic poverty and discrimination. Writing-wise, it was annoying how the author repeated the same mantra in almost every chapter without even caring to paraphrase it, which had me suspicious (later on I was proved right) that I could extract the whole book into that one sentence.
