Everyone Worth Knowing

by LAUREN WEISBERGER

Lauren Weisberger, whose bestselling debut The Devil Wears Prada outed the vicious antics of the magazine industry elite, is back at it with Everyone Worth Knowing, another cautionary tale of sex, power, and fame.

“Not as good as "The Devil Wears Prada", but still a really interesting inside look at the entertainment industry. Great characters.”

“A slow, painful read which is boring, annoying and contains a highly dislikable main character. Not worth it.”

    “extremly trashy book!
    And what does this author have against muslims??
    I dnt kno if anyone has noticed, but this author takes disparaging
    shots at muslims in her every book!
    Liike in devil wears prada, to emphasize andrea's starved condition,

    she says its like "fucking ramadan"??
    Does she even know how much weight does Ramadan carry for us,

    muslims?? How can she associate it with a 'fucking'??
    And in this book, when they r in turkey,, she says something about
    'avoiding the view of the mosque"?!!!??
    I hope in her forthcoming books, she will refrain from such disdainful strategy.
    this has hurt me immensely!”

    “Could not get through it. I gave up about half way through. The Devil Wears Prada is one of my all time favorite books. I was extremely disappointed in this one.”

    “ I did enjoy reading this book, but it too closely resembled "The Devil Wears Prada."”
