I borrowed Blink from the library, bought The Tipping Point in India (cheap!!), and bought Outliers here. I'm partway through Outliers but it's my favorite so far. Have you read What the Dog Saw?

Have you read What the Dog Saw? wow, can this be who i think it is  yeah i'm reading what the dog saw now, sorta. i haven't gotten into yet, which is leading me to believe i don't like it that much because i was already into blink by this point in the book. i sorta wanna quit and read outliers and the tipping point first. this one seems to be more of a compilation of essays. (i think maybe it's actually just a bunch of articles he's written for the new yorker? can't remember). so i guess the fact that it doesn't seem to have one central theme is throwing me off. |
