Gillian Anderson Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Gillian Anderson

I remember tearing through this book. Just desperate to know what was gonna happen... I also found myself thinking back to it for months after I read it. You know, everything that Kiley Reid writes about in the book is painfully true.

I think it’s in the title, to be honest. I mean, it’s the duality of humour and despair. It’s one of those rare books that kind of makes you cackle with laughter one moment and then rips you off the next moment and utterly destroys and devastates you.

It’s quite shocking. But not necessarily in the way that you’d expect. The level of intimacy and honesty from the women who were interviewed is just completely extraordinary. Women are sharing their deepest fantasies in an unfiltered, raw way.

It was unlike anything I’d ever read before. It’s narrative journalism. It had that kind of curious, incisive journalistic perspective. But it’s also a book that really cares about and honours its subjects. So it’s about these three women, but it’s really about who we are, as women.
