Ronan Farrow details his reporting on the Harvey Weinstein scandal with care and honesty. His dedication to publish this story despite the backlash, coverups, and conspiracies is admirable and something I hope other reporters aspire to. He handles the sensitive topic of sexual abuse and assault with care while also not shying away from the details of what actually happened. He is also clear about his sources and I believe he vetted everything he possibly could to maintain integrity in his reporting. Would def recommend this to anybody and everybody.

This was a rivetting book and, as with his first book, Farrow is a master at writing compelling and important stories. However, and without trying to diminish the importance of these stories, the second half of the book, especially after the *article* is published really slows down, there's a section that feels just like a dump of traumatic stories that while important and gut-wrenching are not weaved into the book really well.
