This one was a disappointment for me. Loved the premise but found the book to be very slow paced to the point of boring. I considered DNFing a few times but was interested enough to find out the ending.

I loved this book! I expected the concept to be totally different and loved all the turns this story took. It's hard to say any character is the "good" or "bad" guy and it's easy to see how these flawed characters make flawed decisions. Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for the ARC!

Amazing. The author (new to me), is brilliant. A true artist. Very few words wasted in this twisty turny novel.
3 women: One is the creator of a female health and wellness company that utilizes all the social media to LIFT her brand (iykyk).
One woman started with the brand in the beginning days and has benefited from the products (so she believes) and is a devoted fan.
One woman works for the brand, befriends the devoted worker/fan, but had a different experience and is bitter.
There is a twisty turn. And, oddly enough, the character that I was sure I wasn't going to be rooting for, I actually found myself rooting for in the end.
I couldn't put the book down (that alone deserves 5 stars as I start and stop many many books and few rarely hold my attention).
Could easily go from book to screen, and I hope if it does, they stick to the story.
In a fair world, this would spend a year on the Best Seller list.

Rhoda West is the founder of Radical, a billion dollar wellness company. She’s stunning, both in looks and in business savvy, but she’s also obsessed with keeping her empire growing and with the fear that she could lose it all. She’s slightly paranoid and will do what is necessary to protect herself and what she has accomplished.

Dani Lang work for Radical and is a true believer. Then she’s hand selected by Rhoda for a dream job. However, it doesn’t take long to realize that something is off with Radical.

Cecilia Cole works in customer care and she’s not a fan of dealing with the disgruntled public. In her spare time she runs a secret Twitter account where she attempts to out Rhoda as a hypocrite. Then she happens upon what she believes is proof. How much is she willing to risk to expose Rhoda and Radical.

Rhoda gets a bad rap here. Even the person who wrote the cover blurb gives Rhoda the shaft….are you paranoid if people really are out to get you? And what is wrong with protecting what you do? If Rhoda were a man there would be no story here. This is a lot of bullshit.

That said, this is but one of many “something sinister going on at a wellness company” books (NATURAL BEAUTY, youthjuice, ROUGE) that have been out recently, but I like the idea, so I think I’ve read most of them. I liked this.
