Review of 'Flash boys' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

It's a quick read, and and makes you outraged at all the things you would be outraged at the financial system for doing and more. However, there's no clear plan to resolution or even whether the bold experiment to fix the cancer is even really working at the end or not, so you end up just agitated and unresolved.

Review of 'Flash Boys' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Read in two all-too-quick sittings. The world needs more excellent non-fiction writers like this who can take complex stories and tell them so well. I agree wholeheartedly with his overarching thesis that our economic system should be not only more transparent, but easier to understand for the everyday citizen.
