| Just got it and absolutely devouring it. It’s better written than I expected. She starts off so pro-Meta that it’s borderline unsympathetic but then she sees these people for who they really are—WOW. |
| No but just read about it in Ron Charles’s WaPo newsletter and now I want to! |
|
Welp, you'll have to fill us all in. Is this the same one?

| NP, wow, yes, that’s it. Now I want to read it too. |
It looks like you can still buy it on Amazon. So she may be enjoined but her publisher and book sellers are not? |
I just bought it on Amazon, so it is still available. Maybe the judge blocked the author from talking about it? Not sure. And yes, I know buying things from Amazon is unpopular these days. I tried putting a hold on it through MoCo library but they haven’t acquired it yet and given the controversy I think they may not get it, so I decided to buy. |
| Yeah it seems like the injunction is against the author not the publisher, so the book is still for sale but she’s not going on book tour or anything. |
| Meeee!! So far it’s really interesting |

I hate memoirs
I don’t know why people like overblown stories Ms Noam had to go on and in about pet euthanasia- just to sell a book No way the first draft was that way |
| This is no ordinary memoir—it’s actually helping me understand how we got to the hellscape we’re in now. |
| I wasn't that interested until Meta sued and now i will definitely be buying and reading. I will say that I always thought Sanburg was full of sh*t. |
| I'm on Chapter 6 of the audiobook -- loving it. The meeting between Zuckerberg and the New Zealand prime minister was worth the price of the book by itself. I also love the audiobook for the author's wonderful accent ha! |
| Might have to put that one on the list. |
| I’m enjoying it! |
Are you Flip Driscoll? Why are you writing as if you are attempting a haiku, but have not achieved one? |
