I saw the overall reviews for this book weren’t great before I read it and I was a little like… uh oh is this going to be a waste of time? I ended up reading it in just a couple of days. The chapters were somewhat short which led to me “just one more chapter… just one more… ok now just one more…” and read through it fast. I think it is a lot of info but a) it probably helps if you know the “cast of characters” and b) honestly not that much info compared to some other bios.
In all it taught me a lot and got my interested in learning more (like watching the vogue YouTube channel)

I am not a fashionista but I follow the fashion field a little bit, enough to know who is who. I had just finished Andre Tally's, The Chiffon Trenches, which I loved so I was curious about this bio of Anna Wintour. I found her an amazing and fascinating woman of privilege was quite the force in her field. I love any work that shows me how a strong leader operates. so I quickly devoured this book and would recommend it to any woman interested in the leadership and style of a very successful woman.

So much detail. Yes, about the woman on whom "Devil Wears Prada" is based. Lots of it truth and some insight into what makes this immensely successful woman tick. This is a big book about almost everyone with whom Anna Wintour ever had contact. Good. Not great. Now, if Anna ever writes an autobiography - that will be something!
