Not for mature audience. If you are a teen-to-early-30ties with coddled mind, severe lack of vocabulary and your sentences start with "hey Dude, this is s***t" then you will connect with this book. It is a decent introduction into common factual information that those generations lack.

I will say that really wanted to like this book (purchased it at full cover price) but I cannot get through it. I'm at the end of what seems to be an endless tweet. The construction of arguments are openly and indefensibly subjective and the lexical appeal to the younger generation borders on patronizing. The standard for content selection seems to be no more than what memes and articles you run into on Face book. The second star is because Kristin Tate has made libertarianism a little cooler with her generation.
