A review by nic_readsbooks
Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World by Naomi Klein

informative medium-paced

4.0

it’s taken me a while to write this review i have mixed views on this book. 

It was immensely informative and the ideas of us having doppelgängers were really interesting and maybe a little bit terrifying. 

It was well written, thought out and researched. There was clearly a lot of hard work taken for this book to be written. 

The writing style was accessible and despite the heavy topic, I found the content easy to follow. 

I think the thing I struggled with was that the basis was the author being annoyed that she was constantly mixed up with another person because they have the same first name and are both authors. I found it interesting that this book had stemmed from the author getting fed up and it seemed like this led to her spending enormous amounts of time and effort to write this to repeatedly make the point about how annoying it was. 

I think for that reason I struggled with it a little. Yet it was an interesting book and I definitely learnt a lot so overall a four star for me
