Product Information

I read straight through overnight and was so caught up in the story, I was surprised by a major plot point (that any DM fan should have seen miles away.

Anon Pls,” which was written by DeuxMoi with Jessica Goodman, was published in November 2022 by William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins. Plus, there's a steamy new love interest who she meets through her online persona--except she has no idea if she can truly trust his motives. Liiike…an entertaining but not good Netflix movie retelling of The Devil Wears Prada, but updated by an apathetic Grade 8 group creative writing project that just wants to be done already? I was a bit concerned that being a collaboration between a super famous Instagram account it would be all style and no substance but I was totally wrong.

but a novel about the genesis of a real gossip instagram page co-penned by said gossip instagrammer and former Cosmo Op-Ed edited Jessica Goodman. I think it probably helps that 98% of the celebrities are fictionalised, although there is plenty of room to try to guess if any character is modelled on a real person. You can’t beat a good underdog story and a great reminder that a little courage can change your life.Lol and super rich of Cricket/DeuxMoi to complain about a journalist invading her friends' privacy when her entire account and fame is built on invading people's privacy. it took almost a month to reach me here in New Delhi because there were some issues with customs, other than that I’m happy.

One night after an especially hard day at work she goes out with friends and has one too many shots of tequila and creates DeuxMoi (two me, in French), posting first-hand gossip about celebs. Never gonna be a literary classic, but getting the inside view of the Deuxmoi juggernaut is a heap of fun! Essentially this is Crickett's journey of self-discovery and how to monetize DM, and establish it as her full-time job, and leave behind the daily torment of being an assistant to a tyrant behind. But when the account grows overnight and, even wilder, when she starts getting gossip from fans and insiders—juicy gossip—she has to face facts: her Instagram is now famous.I loved the little Easter eggs, trying to decipher what was real and what wasn't, and the similarities we get in this book, like Duke Dudley's story, which is based on Army Hammer's scandal, which Deuxmoi helped break the news on. although, as time went on, I think people stopped caring and just started to enjoy the ride—at least I did), but really, I think the book's strengths was the hot celebrity goss (sorry not sorry) and trying to figure out all of the Easter Eggs, and not Cricket Lopez slogging around for eight years as an assistant to an abusive boss (and the even more cringy romance subplot). I know this was more than likely ghostwritten, but I still can't believe Melissa probably approved this and thus made me and everyone else read about someone describing her masturbating. For nonfans, this autofiction is reminiscent of other of-the-moment bad-boss books like Leigh Stein's Self Care .
