Throughout the whole book the author has been kind of saying im too smart to be a a part of a cult im too good at pattern recognition etc etc but does seem to be roped into cult fitness and I think it's important that she shows ANYONE can be pulled in

Ok so started the section on cult fitness and it is actually so on the nose it's incredible

Ok I'll admit i don't know jack about amway so this is good to know

Starting back up for the day

Damn the sheer amount of "more on that later" is starting to get to me

just gotten through Jim jones and heavens gate and starting to get into the metaphysical and spiritual section
This is definitely a more casually/conversationally written book than scholarly which I think appeals to a younger audience
It has been pretty focused on linguistics so far but it is combined with a bit of history on each cult which is good b/c as a young person im not as familiar with them
