A review by writerrhiannon
Self Care by Leigh Stein

I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review



"In the attention economy, thoughtful solutions had so little value.”


Self Care is a whip-smart, satirical look behind the curtain of the social media influencer machine. This book had me cracking up at the absurd but realistic descriptions of the expectations, aspirations, passive-aggressive, and just plain aggressive behavior of some of the characters. The storyline moves along at lightning speed, dissects the irony of competitive self care, takes dark turns, and exposes a variety of players, stakes, and agendas behind a single self care start up. I definitely recommend this one and if the ending were more detailed and polished, I would have given it a full five stars.
