Must admit I quite admire her as she clearly doesn't google herself, unlike most of the insecure 'influencers' we take the piss out of on here. So I slightly think 'Go you, boomer' (yes I know I'm not allowed to say that, sorry). But I do.

 

[soph30]

But I mean... surely as Vogue editor she had an eye for detail and fact checking?!
I think she just thinks of Instagram as a bit of a joke and afterthought, which is typical of her generation. She doesn't realise it's her business. In her head what matters is print

Finally unfollowed odious Elizabeth Day. The smugness and self-indulgence was too much.

Oh ignore them, it’s a great book. Read an ARC and would highly recommend it.

You're messing up our formula babe we have a rule we don't engage with stuff that lot recommend but would love to make an exception... will add to cart!

Is it worth a read?! I need a new book. Reading Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow at the mo but I’m kind of take it or leave it at the moment. (Sorry to derail the thread!)

oh, I’ve just read my review and it seems I didn’t love it, but would say I did like it enough to recommend.

Christ, that book sounds like pretentious muck, exactly the kind of shite the LLs fawn over. Def won’t be reading.

 

[handunderchin]

Green Dot is fantastic! And the author isn’t part of that set

Thanks much! It was when I started netgalley and I was full of good intentions. More recent reviews have seen far far less effort from Me!

Now you know you can just say “vital reading!”. Job done!

 

[jenmarks]

One does wonder just how much stuff she gets for free and fails to declare...

 

[Love_hate_small_town]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Rules don’t apply! She’s better than that.
