Thanks @Megabooks for putting this one on my radar. I finally got around to reading it a year later! Cameron Russell is a model and recounts her experiences with creeps and feelings of guilt for the unsavory nature of the fashion industry and her profits. She discusses her political activities and relationship with her mother. A quick listen!

I expected more from this one, but I'm still giving it a low pick. It was a fast-paced audiobook that kept me entertained while listening, but it didn't make a lasting impression.

🦊 I could've easily invested in another couple hundred pages.

Edgar says I am not journaling right now about the best book I've read so far this year. I've read several books (both fiction and nonfiction) by Sarah Moss, and damn, can she write! This was definitely her most vulnerable, and if you choose to read, proceed with caution. It's a hard subject, but she handles in well. She's sharp, intense, and brutally honest even questioning her own unreliability as a narrator of her own story.

TrishB I thought this was amazing. 1mo

Kari Ferrell was known as the Hipster Grifter in NYC after articles published gave her this moniker after the discovery of some of her scams around 2009. In her new memoir, she recounts the scams she ran on friends and family, from elementary school in Utah (after being adopted from Soith Korea), through young adulthood in Brooklyn. Terrell‘s scams targeted those closest to her. Though I typically love to read about scams, this missed the mark.

fredthemoose I‘m in the middle of this and feel the same way! A list of crimes just isn‘t that compelling. I think it‘s going to be a bail for me. (edited) 1mo
Chelsea.Poole @Suet624 right??! It‘s like I should have seen this coming 😝 1mo
