I finished the book a few weeks ago but didn't have the time to write a review.
All in all, I'm a fan of Gladwell's writing. I enjoyed his point of view on the topic of "battle of the small against the big" but overall it felt very repetitive. At some points I would imagine that there are a ton of references against his findings. For instance he describes how being Dyslexic teaches you how to fight for everything in life more than other people. That seemed fine till the point that the reader starts questioning whether he wishes he had Dyslexia.
Overall the book is a good read, there is a lot of info on a couple of topics, but it is far from being Gladwell's best book. Anyways if you haven't read anything from him I strongly suggest Outliers.
Fortunenote - DONE!
