I flew through this book and wanted to share a review, but I also wanted to have a discussion about the many things I marked and made notes of while reading.
There is a squeak sound throughout the video that I didn't notice while filming, but I believe it was the book as I was holding it in my lap the entire time near the microphone. I'm sorry! Hopefully it is not too distracting.
There are also two points when I use a black screen with information on it. This is because I forgot information when I was filming, and I wanted to make sure I had it right.
Also, at just over 30 minutes in, as I was talking about Kevin Franke, I used the word ‘complacent’ when I meant ‘complicit’. I missed this in editing, so it made it to the final video. 🙄
