This was OK but ultimately, personally, not as persuasive as I think the authors would have hoped, and I got slightly annoyed by some of the dialogue and silly scenarios. Although, surprisingly, a lot of the sentiments presented in this book I found having strong parallels with the climate crisis. Someone has already built a system that is already in the process of killing everyone on Earth, as we speak. The time to act is now!

Bold. Honest. Introspective. Flawed. Essential.

This book was about how the design of everyday things largely sucks. And it was correct in its thesis.

A slow-burn at the start, but truly gripping once we were in the thick of it all. The human mind is wonderful and strange.

Very good. I like it when The Hobbit does hobbit stuff.
