My Take on the Book
I had just found out about the Name Explain YouTube channel and this book was a great addition to what is shared through the authors' channel. The book goes into more depth than the author can in short YouTube videos. The book goes into deeper depth and you definitely learn a ton as you are learning this as well. I had no clue the backstory at so much of the content of this book and I came to find that in every page I was drawn deeper into the book because I wanted to learn more. This was a great book that I would highly recommend to all.
