Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism by Amanda Montell

4.0

This was fascinating!! From more obvious cults like Heaven’s Gate and Scientology, to modern day trends that have are said to have cult followings like Peloton and Instagram/social media, this book explains just how powerful and dangerous language can be when used to manipulate and overpower groups of people. We are all susceptible to it and if you don’t think you are, this book will be an eye opener. I read this via audiobook and really enjoyed it!
