Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell

1 min read

BATB Score: 1/10
The book cover is misleading #fakenews
You kind of expect Malcolm's behavioral economics and techniques to talk to strangers when it's more of documentary anecdotes on how we don't know the people around us. #strangersassemble
Best for: those who spark joy from the CIA fooled, the pedophile getting lucky, the innocent arrested, and just on and on case studies.
Best as: a Netflix 45 minutes documentary #TBC #bookstagram
Best to: watch the Netflix documentary if ever there was one #meh #justskipit
p.s. "Outlier" was way better!
