I read about 58% of this book in the spring and then never picked it up again. Although there are interesting areas explored, the text mainly reads as a couple of disgruntled academics settling grudges and addressing pet peeves with fellow anthropology authors. I'm not in the field, perhaps it reads differently if you are, but the theme got old pretty fast and I only read as far as I did because of a book club commitment (where noone else finished it either.)

Chanced on a review of Karen Hao's book yesterday and mentioned it as an idea for my non-fiction book club. Turns out at least one of the other guys has already read it and gave a glowing endorsement. Looking forward to have a go.

I read this after reading Decluttering at the speed of life. That book was, as the title suggests, more focused on declutterring and thus more what I wanted. This one goes broader with habits and how to start doing your dishes regularly. Not bad advice, and I took some things from it, but I could have probably settled for the first book.
Third book by this woman. Seems repetitive if you’ve read the first two but that’s not necessarily bad.
