Full disclosure: I’m still in the midst of reading this book. But a huge hat tip to the reader who recommended it somewhere in the threadjacks — it’s an amazing read so far. (Well, I’ve primarily* listened to the book thus far, and it’s such an easy listen.)
She’s shared less than five stories so far, I think (not all regarding Facebook, either), and each and every one of them have been absolutely jaw dropping, told beautifully, and honestly leave me speechless and emotional if I have to stop in the middle of the story. (My poor son had to listen to me telling him the entire story of her shark attack because I had just listened to it and I was still OMG-ing.) I’m assuming this is where the cover art comes from!
She’s also been talking about how she decided she was fascinated by Facebook and the “global revolution” that she saw coming in 2011, and how she went about pitching an entirely new job to the Facebook team, including using her network and adjusting her pitch in really smart ways… great reading if you’ve ever had a fantasy job that you wanted to make reality.
The book is available on hardcover for around $17 at Amazon, Bookshop, Target, or Barnes & Noble; if you’re a member of Kindle Unlimited (*raises hand*) it’s available for free.
*Am I the only one who likes to get the ebook and the audiobook out at the same time and move between the two? I often find it easiest to start a new book via audiobook. I belong to a few different libraries so I like this Chrome extension to put myself on various hold lists; Spotify Premium also has a lot of audiobooks available.
