I already had some knowledge of QAnon and their beliefs before picking this book up, but only enough to know I wasn't going to be buying what they were selling before mostly tuning them out. So this book was both equally enlightening and horrifying to see just how deep their ideas ran (run?) and how much they've disseminated into the general public media.
The book itself is very well written—easily approachable with a seamless blend of both narrative and info-dumping. Cook has done a great job of mixing actual scientific information and facts with the very real stories detailing the lives of five different families who have been directly affected by QAnon. This is my ideal kind of nonfiction book where there's just enough of a storytelling aspect to make it easy to digest, while also clearly being a factual account full of reliable information.
If you're someone who's curious about how American politics have devolved into what you're seeing today, then this book probably has a lot of the answers. I'd highly recommend it to anybody looking to fill in some gaps in their understanding of current political climate.
