    A bit slow and could be boring, but it gave me a different perspective. I liked it.

    Veblen’s work is a bit dry. I liked some of the ideas, but not a fast-paced read.

    The satire is spot-on, even after all these years. A must-read for sociology enthusiasts.

    Veblen’s writing style can be challenging. The concepts are interesting, but the language is archaic.

    This book is thought-provoking book, but it can be a little difficult to follow. Some ideas are useful.

    A brilliant and biting critique of society. It’s a bit of a time commitment, but well worth it.

    A classic, but a bit dense. Thorstein Veblen’s observations are still relevant today. Worth the effort to understand.
