Anon Pls.: A Novel

Product Information

It's light and fun, full of inside jokes and celebrity references that fans of the instagram account will get instantly, and those who aren't as familiar can still enjoy. interesting if you're a long time follower of the account, was a lot of fun figuring out who the real-life versions of the fictionalized posts were (weird mix of real celeb names and fake one? This actually mirrors DeuxMoi in interviews that I've read; you'll notice that she is always evading accountability, not taking responsibility for anything harmful or damaging or inaccurate she might have posted, and afraid to be criticised. The texts, messages and internet stories help show what Cricket is seeing on the screen and consolidate what a big deal it is.

Despite not being able to get over how this book was allowed to be published while essentially copying the whole 'The Devil Wears Prada' movie plot, I was curious how an anonymous IG account became such a wild success (with 2 Million followers and counting) and the source for celebrity "news". It's a wild romp through the assistant trenches, a glitzy peek at the lives of the rich and famous, and a page-turning tale about what happens when one impulsive decision spirals out of control. But judging on what the book actually was and what it actually achieve, this was very average and not in a way I think anyone needs to rush out to experience.It was fun trying to figure out the real-life allegories some of this stuff must be based on, though. I found myself falling into a rabbit hole when looking up blind items, Reddit threads, news articles and interviews to devour as much as I could. The finale of the book when Cricket has a revelation of what to do next kind of felt like product placement (or it’s a coincidence that it aligned at the time). But when the account grows overnight and, even wilder, when she starts getting gossip from fans — juicy gossip — she has to face facts: her Instagram is now famous. I think it probably helps that 98% of the celebrities are fictionalised, although there is plenty of room to try to guess if any character is modelled on a real person.

Wildly entertaining and seriously unputdownable, here we have the origin story of the famed Instagram celebrity gossip account, Deuxmoi. When Cricket Lopez, assistant to one of the most notorious celebrity stylists, revamps her old style Instagram account and turns it into a celebrity gossip blog on a drunken whim, she never thinks it will become anything.I know this was more than likely ghostwritten, but I still can't believe Melissa probably approved this and thus made me and everyone else read about someone describing her masturbating. It is being developed as a one-hour drama series via Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros.
