Once again, I read this for uni and anything I read by force is something I will automatically have a resistance to lmao. That said, this has some very interesting points and Putnam illustrates and exemplifies them well by using interviews from people living in the situations he writes about. I learned a lot about the opportunity gap for kids from different socioeconomic backgrounds even if I found some sections to be a little heavy on the stats. Would recommend if this is a subject you're interested in, otherwise it might be a bit dry.
