Inside Look at Reddit submitted by chowcy on August 28, 2020, 8:53pm This is a very well-researched and well-written book. I could tell that right off the bat. The author must have done a lot of research and interviewed many people. The story in question is somewhat interesting. The author gives a factual account of how Reddit came to be and the effects it had, as well as inside looks into the founders and other people involved in the origin story of Reddit.
