Mini Audiobook Review: This is my 2nd book by Amanda and I love her millennial mind and even though I haven't listened to her podcasts, I love the concept.

I love that this book opened up with a whole section dedicated to fandoms. The whole stan culture is so fascinating to see in real time and how it has changed from when I was a tween in the age before the internet to now. I could not imagine the Backstreet Boys vs NSYNC wars on the internet or what slander towards the pop princesses of the time would be said.

I also was interested in the section about social comparison. Social media has changed how a lot of us view ourselves and our achievements. We see our peers or strangers doing all these things that is deemed successful when for another the act of simply getting out of bed could be an achievement.

I felt that Montell made the topics pretty digestible and I am pretty sure if she read the phone book, I would listen to it. She is such a great narrator that it makes the listening experience so pleasant.

Note: I do not rate non fiction books.
