Don't Call It a Cult: The Shocking Story of Keith Raniere and the Women of Nxivm by Sarah Berman

dark emotional sad tense medium-paced

5.0

The most comprehensive piece of media I’ve consumed about NXIVM so far. It starts with Raniere’s childhood and goes year by year all the way through to his sentencing in 2020. It has plenty of in-depth testimonies from women who have not been featured in other books, podcasts, or tv shows about the organization. I do not recommend this book as a cold open to NXIVM since it is so comprehensive it can be a little confusing if you don’t have any grasp on the organization and its members already. I’d suggest the 4 episode show “Seduced”, made by STARZ, as a starter on NXIVM.
