1 min read

BATB score: 6/10 🥱💤
How to operate your memory brain - Rhetorica Ad Herennium with memory palaces and Person-Action-Object (PAO) technique eg. #89 - snowfall ❄️
Best as: how to train to be mental athletes for the USA Memory Championship - very relatable, definitely every childhood dream đź’ #sarcasm
Best to: watch the Netflix documentary "Memory Games" which perfectly summarises the gist of this book in 1.5 hours at 6.7/10 imdb score instead
Best for: the book cover and book name was clickbait - has nothing to do with Einstein nor moonwalking 🕺
Random Grunt: too detailed and wordy on Joshua Foer's journey from memory-nobody to 2006 USA Memory Champion 🏆
