Not useful

Collection of stories (I guess makes sense since author is a journalist). I expected more.

Good overview

Good overview of the different parts of e-commerce.

I found watching a Shopify tutorial (1 to 2 hours) on YouTube, and then reading this book to be helpful.

Narrator was fine with me.

Overall useful book

Book is Short and to the point. Examples of successful entrepreneurs are fairly detailed. Narration is not inspiring.
