An interesting addition to this new genre of analyzing and criticizing the wellness industry, albeit the ending ultimately falls short.
I did get wrapped up in the mystery that emerges in the middle of the book, but feel like the shift in focus to solving it softened the impact of the rest of the building plotlines. It certainly demonstrates that ultimately, wellness has been swallowed by capitalism, and there will always be a She-EO to girlboss, gaslight, and gatekeep their way to the top.
