I liked this one. I think they could have left 1 or 2 of them out as they are not so awesome, the book is a few years old though so some of the issues hadn‘t come to light yet.
It‘s interesting and there were a few authors that I wasn‘t aware of that I should have been. I feel like it was written for a younger age group do you some of the glossing over of things but also some things were left in about other authors so 🤷🏻‍♀️
Good,interesting
