There’s this thing where there’s a really good New Yorker article or Atlantic feature is a sensation, and some publisher is like, “hey, you should write this as a book” and then the writer goes through and essentially dilutes the concentrated essence that is the article into a thin 200-page soup that you have to spoon your way through to find the meaty chunks.
From that perspective, blinkist is just boiling it back down to the correct thickness.
