I am not a fan of non-fiction, and I loved this book. Didn’t feel like a non-fiction book at all. It was a wild ride that left my jaw on the floor.

yikeslou's review against another edition

dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

4.5

firstly i devoured this book in three sittings. i could not put it down. farrow writes like he's talking to you and i found it extremely easy to read in terms of sentence structure. the content was another matter entirely.

all i want to say is that farrow expertly shows the reader his process of compiling very painful stories with so much care to keep what's important at the center, realistically showing the toll it took on him without censoring his missteps or centering himself in a story that isn't really his. i respect him deeply for this and i can't recommend this book highly enough if you want to know more about how weinstein was brought down and why it took so damn long.

this book contains explicit details about harvey weinstein's predatory behavior and sexual assault of many women, as well as the SA committed by other powerful men close to weinstein or farrow.
