I'd seen the documentary that was made about Theranos and Elizabeth Holmes, so I knew about a lot of the content of this book, but it was really interesting to listen in so much detail from the reporter who broke the case.

I listened to this on audiobook, and while I think it was well narrated, I think it is sometimes a little too technical to just listen to as far as the medical terminology and procedures. I wished I'd had the physical book with me to read along at some points or go back and re-read, but again, I'm at least somewhat familiar with the case already, so it didn't hinder my reading experience.

It's difficult to really fathom the number of successful and seemingly intelligent people this woman was able to con. Honestly, if I'd read a fictional novel following this story I would think it was asking me to suspend my disbelief to a ridiculous extent. I mean, we're talking CEOs and media moguls and military bigwigs, not to mention high-ranking members of both major political parties. It's absolutely astounding to me. Also, the fact that she hasn't seen the inside of a jail cell yet is an absolute miscarriage of justice. No one can convince me that this woman isn't a straight-up narcissist with sociopathic tendencies.
