    I really really enjoyed this book!!!!!!

    It's a short and well-structure book that give us some good tips and suggestions about how to get better grades, stay more organized, adquire some habits and, as a results, become a more productive student (and straight As).

    The language is very dynamic and fluid like we're having a friendly conversation with the author (or watching his channel - sometimes, when I was reading, his voice popped up in my head like an audiobook), sometimes I've felt that I was talking with my NERD friends (I'm a little nerd too, so it's a compliment) specially with all those gamer's exemples and parallels made to emphasize some ideas and some(all)times, sarcasm, made me laugh out loud.

    I'm not in college anymore (my major degrees in chemistry is about to happen in July), but I'll start to study by myself for post-graduation degrees, IELTS certification, and life goes on stuff, and that book also helped to view a plan to organize my schedule better, make plans and stay organized to achieve my goals.

    I just think it should be bigger and with less links, and more visual and on page examples about what he is suggesting (I've owned the free edition - thank you very much, Thomas Frank - but I printed it to read, and in many pages I've got trilled to my phone again just to see some hiperlink, so, yes, even if the text format goes messy, that would be awesome!)

    I've made a LOTS of notes and underlines, highlights, circles and every type of rubric available to point out important things in this book, so, now, I need to summarize and try to apply it :)
