Review of 'Alibaba: The House That Jack Ma Built' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Maybe I was wrong in assuming that this book would be about Jack Ma.
His photo is on the cover.
His name in the subtitle.
And the author mentions several time that he worked with jack.
But the book isn't about Jack.

Sure the author mentions him every now and then, but only tells his story without any depth.

Instead it is a very, very broad overview of the rise of the Chinese internet industry.

And because of that, it's only very, very mildly interesting...
... and a very, very disappointing read.
