My Friend Anna

I was curious to read this after watching the Netflix series. Something about the book just doesn't sit right. It's first hand, so obviously a little biased. However, its riddled with speculations, theories and seems more like a venting journal entry than something worth publishing. I didn't like Rachel from the start and unfortunately my opinion didn't change

Gripping book! I couldn't stop listening. My empathy punched me in the guy as the author's anxiety seeped through my ear buds. This scam story is just too insane for words. The New York Times pieces on Anna Delvey (“How Anna Delvey Conned New York” and “A Fake Heiress Called Anna Delvey Conned the City's Wealthy”) are also recommended side reading if you're fascination extends beyond the book.
