    Omg, Rob's ranking was the highlight of the video for me. It has no visible coherent order but he is so confident and serious when explaining it! I think you should have a wrap-up with him where you explain what the book is about and then he ranks the covers for how well they convey the contents of the book.

    I also gave hmrc a 3, then decided to read the second one anyway and ended up giving it a 4, I think the second one did a better job at balancing the serious parts with the need to suspend your disbelief and also introduced a couple of new perspectives which were super interesting to read from. It's also very long but I read it in about 3 days which is really unusual for me, it just flew by
