Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Kara Swisher's narration is the star of ‘Burn Book’. With her crisp and confident voice, she brings her own story to life, mirroring the sharp wit and unapologetic tone found throughout. The pacing is brisk, never dragging, even as the content delves into complex tech debates. A standout moment comes when Swisher details the political maneuvering behind Apple’s rise; it's a vivid portrayal that feels like being in the room. However, the relentless pace can make for some choppy transitions between lighter and heavier topics, potentially overwhelming at times. Despite this, Swisher's unique perspective makes ‘Burn Book’ an essential listen for anyone interested in tech history or just enjoying a well-told story.
