How We Do It

All of our writers are bookworms and bibliophiles. Hence, they don’t mind reading the books several times while turning them into book summaries. Moreover, they are well versed in breaking down multifaceted chronicles and complex concepts in an easily digestible manner, at the same time entirely relevant to the original book, and to your personal growth and professional development!

Each book summary or microbook as we like to call it, is written in a way that they can be read and listened to entirely independently of the book they summarize. In other words, they are not just a haphazard list of key insights and highlights, but meaningful, self-sufficient accounts connecting the ideas in question in engrossing narratives by way of arguments, anecdotes and original quotes.

Why 12min?

At 12min, we take pride in providing not just a well-structured and easily digestible synopsis of more than 2500+ nonfiction titles but also a comprehensive and actionable overview of the key insights of the book in question.
