Permanent Record by Edward Snowden

Synopsis: Personal account of a young systems engineer, and notable whistleblower.
Writing Style: Humble, Very Humble, Quiet, Soft
Pacing: Moderate, though an absolute page-turner
Personal Highlights: What grabbed me most was Snowden explaining the reality for a generation raised in a landscape of Atari's and Nintendos, and introduced to fairness and personal and private rights. The GenX and Millennials SEE differently from generations raised in an analog world who inherently learned to stay in their lane. Even though this is a given and no big mystery, this reality underscores the catalyst of Snowden's experiences, and his story. Personally, it was as touching as it was enlightening to see from this view. He did a fine job iterating this message as it relates to constitutional and privacy affairs, actually a concern for all generations, despite the kaleidoscope of values.

Overall, the story itself, though humbly written, includes lots of suspense...and is penned with a satirical pitch. I didn't miss a page, a sentence, a word. It was incredibly hard to put this book down. Highly Recommended!
