Palestine in a World on Fire by Katherine Natanel, Ilan Pappé

This book was way too smart for me. I didn't feel like it was written in a very accessible way. Many concepts were just mentioned without really being expanded upon, and there were many words I needed to define that not even the built-in dictionary on Kindle could define for me. Also, the last essay in this was all about economics, which really confused me because I had no clue what was being discussed. Maybe I'm just not smart enough, but this was very challenging for me to read. 

I did appreciate this collection's concept and learned a lot, which I'm happy about.
