so-soI give this two stars because its subject is interesting. A book about the narcissist of the tech industry. What‘s not enjoyable is the author is as narcissistic as the people she‘s writing about. The book seems to be a tribute to the wonderfulness of Kara Swisher who is always right. She seems to have the impression that she has some influence over the decisions the tech giants make. lost count of the “me‘s” and “I‘s”. All hail Kara Swisher.
pickThis one wasn't quite as gripping as the first book, but it's still a pacy read with bodies dropping left, right & centre. There's also an enemies-to-lovers subplot & the original survivors pop up in several chapters which was nice as I didn't warm to the new characters in this one. 3.5🌟
TWs: graphic violence, death.

Love the cover colour way for memoirs by women talking about their chosen field. ♥️🤍
As I was taking this photo on my porch, two moms walking their kids home from the school near my house started screaming profanities at each other. One accused the other of not loving their child for not doing the fun run correctly, to which the other responded, "Suck a fat d*** you c***". ???
Alexa, play "It's A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood"
pickGreat collection of ancient inventions! I gave my copy to my brother in law.
pickSwisher recounts her professional journalism career reporting on tech and tech giants that matches the swagger that is needed to go ego to ego in covering them. Mostly recaps of events and interviews. Jobs is painted well; Musk is taken down. Interesting points on tech.
pickUnputdownable journalistic memoir with loads of insight into the tech industry and a very low tolerance for bro culture and BS
