“I have mixed feelings about this book. On the one hand, there were some great tidbits about strategy in there. The small sections felt very bite-sized so you could read one or two of them and then move on; excellent for a busy reader. Seth Godin's writing style is fairly clear and concise, doing a solid job of communicating what he was trying to say.
A couple of things I wasn't a fan of: first off, this book was definitely presented as if it was more of a how to on strategy, not a collection of little blurbs about the subject. Another thing that bothered me was that randomly right near the end of the book he started talking about politics. It only very barely applied and felt a bit more like it was shoved in there so he could make his opinions about this or that known to the public.
Otherwise a solid book, I'm glad to have read it.
Thank you to Netgalley for my advanced reader copy!”
