Thought provoking
Fascinating and very useful book on decisions around giving. Led me to the also useful website to actually choose effective charities to give to. The stories illustrating our choices are very interesting too.

Engaging, and worthwhile
The book is great. It isn't filled with useless filler content or sensationalist BS. It's just a really good book.

Impactful
Important and meaningful book that changed the way I viewed philanthropy. Thought provoking and sometimes uncomfortable - but in a way that pushes you out of your comfort zone to a better place.

Too preachy
Not what I expected from this book, felt way too preachy that it lost my midway into chapter 2. Also didn't appreciate the religion references
