An incredible, gripping and immensely clever read - a hot take on the publishing industry and modern-day 'cancel culture'.  I could not put this book down. A meta-read, writing about writing, the creative process, pathological lying and a guilt-struck, questionaly unreliable narrator. Rocked my world!
