Too much hype interfered with theme of the book

Revisado: 05-05-12

What disappointed you about Mindset?

Way too much hype about how this book is revolutionary and was the first blah, blah, blah. I heard these theories before and felt insulted by the elementary presentation. I got so tired of the "infomercial" interjected in the actual "how to", I had to stop the CD on the first disc. It was very irritating! And, while I do like it when the author performs the preface, Ms. Dweck either needs to refrain from speaking this part or take performance lessons. No offense intended. Her performance is monotone and lackluster. I thought to myself as I was listening to this part, "If she's the narrator, I'm going to ask for my money back". While I was pleased with Marguerite Gavin's performance, the material was grating on my nerves by hopping between the subject matter and congratulating itself for being the first in this field of study.

What could Carol Dweck have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Taken performance lessons or let someone else perform the preface. Also, take out all of the pumping up of the study. Maybe it would have a better flow.

What three words best describe Marguerite Gavin’s performance?

Perky, clear, pleasant.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Irritation.
