** spoiler alert ** 3.5—I wouldn’t call this a bombshell exposé. Nothing was really all that shocking. I was most surprised by the obsession with Weiss’s first marriage and her Little Wedding Black Book� how many times did we really need to cover that?

I’m a fangirl so Glossier is always going to be a topic of interest to me, but this felt simultaneously repetitive and all over the place and could have used a little more focus and editing.

Overall, it made Emily Weiss look like a human being who wants to share her vision with the world while also maintaining a private life. As someone who also became a boss in her early 20s, though obviously on an infinitely smaller scale, I found Weiss’s words and actions very relatable. You learn and you grow as you go. You have imposter syndrome. You look to others who came before you. So she’s not perfect� who is?

Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review an advanced copy of this title.
