The Lorax
Dr SeussRik WorthWe’ve been watching a lot of Illumination films lately, especially the Dr Seuss stuff. I really dislike them. They kind of feel like they don’t care about being good or funny or consistent because they’re “just” for kids. The Lorax in particular is a mess.

The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds
Michael LewisRik Worth@RobynVinter The Undoing Project by Michael Lewis is a personal favourite. Any Jon Ronson too, obvs. And it’s not quite narrative but I Am The Law by @molcher is very relevant right now and really blew me away .
