[Meg · Rating 1 out of 5]

Disorganised complaints about millennials. Based on 'evidence' from Reddit and opinion columns. Offers no discussion of the bigger picture behind the problem, or ways to address it. All I can say is Ok Boomer.

[Alla Anderson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Reads like a school textbook. Very boring!

[Jane Williams · Rating 2 out of 5]

Repetitive. Circular. Confusedly written. Draws long bow connections between disparate facts and opinions.
