Excavations has some deliciously dry humor that's the great gem within this book. Myers' characters are well-developed, even if sometimes too stuck in their own idiosyncrasies, which can make them feel one-sided. The story itself is interesting, a workplace comedy that centers around archaeology and feminism. However, the first half of the book is somewhat slow, and even when the narrative picks up steam, it can still feel sluggish, surprisingly ending as abruptly as an earthquake.

This book is as enlightening as it is infuriating. To be clear, I loved this book. It's a clear and precise account of what the tech monopolies have been doing to destroy their products in the search for constant growth. What's infuriating is seeing laid out so clearly the playbook basically every company uses to screw all of their consumers.
On a better note, I'm very happy to have discovered Libro.fm through this book, and I'm a subscriber now!
