NonFiction November 2021 Wrap Up [CC]

The first chapter of this was so boring. It was in parliament in the UK and it was about King George and the different MPs and them trying to decide like, how they're going to tackle this American problem of them rebelling.

So there were parts where I kind of struggled a little bit with it and there were other parts where I flew through it. It just kind of depended on who this specific monologue was. I think this is just a very unique way of putting a book together.

Ijeoma writes in a very friendly, approachable way so it's dealing with very complicated concepts, but she is taking examples and kind of breaking it down for you so that it's very easy to understand. At the beginning I was a little hesitant because I was- I was a little- trying to find the groove of the audiobook, I think, and I was almost wondering if I should get the physical text because then I could mark it up, but I eventually found... the groove of the book and I ended up really enjoying it and getting some good things out of it.

If you're someone that likes reading about weather, you have an interest in that sort of thing, this book would be a really good combination for you because there is so much about that topic mixed in with the sort of social aspect and how that can affect people and communities, but if you're really here, like I was, for the stories of the people and the build-up, it's going to be a little bit of a slog at times. So I ended up giving it a three out of five stars for that reason. I'm glad I read it.

So, overall, a very good experience with this book and I would recommend it if you are interested in it. It's a very fast read.
