Lean In

I have been wondering what all the hype was about with this book, so I picked it up at the library. It's a nice read, and Sheryl Sandberg is a good storyteller, but there is really nothing profound here.

For those who don't know, Sandberg is the COO of Facebook - one of the few women to hold such a position (and probably one of Facebook's oldest employees). She previously worked at Google. She went to Harvard (twice), and interned for Larry Summers. The woman is privileged and connected. She also gives some good advice. I wish I had read it when I first entered the workforce in my early 20's rather than now, but it's good to read these sorts of books now and then.

But honestly, I believe I already practice much of what she discusses, as do most of the women I know.
