Synopsis

The instant New York Times bestseller and laugh-out-loud look at pop culture and social media stardom from one of the most popular funemployed millennials today, perfect for fans of Give Them Lala and The Betches.

As the creator of the breakout Instagram account @GirlWithNoJob, Claudia Oshry has turned not wanting an ordinary career into a thriving media company and pop culture-focused podcast and morning show. The origins of her pop culture obsessions can be traced back to household debates over boy bands and her flair for the dramatic to her young emulation of Blair Waldorf. When she started @GirlWithNoJob, Claudia entered that world as a social media influencer, sharing her unbelievable—and incredibly awkward—encounters with some of her favorite A-listers as she navigates her incredible access.

Now, in this juicy, behind-the-scenes look at the life of an Instagram sensation, Claudia leaves nothing out as she contemplates staying true to yourself while hustling in today’s digital culture. Sometimes the best lessons are learned the hard way, and her journey hasn’t been without its punch-in-the-face doses of humility. But, like anyone with a relentless desire to be popular, she dusts herself off and finds a new, better way forward. With humor and unique insights, Claudia examines the nature of social media celebrity, the many sides of fandom, and cancel culture. If there’s one thing she knows for sure, she was born thirsty, and she’s here for another round!

Thank you to NetGalley for allowing me to read this in exchange for an honest review. Sigh. Okay. I follow Claudia on Instagram, and while I know she is problematic, I do find her funny sometimes. But this book...was bad. I will say that I enjoyed her Bravo references, and I thought that the chapter......more

Goodreads review by Kristyn on November 22, 2020

I've read my fair share of social media and influencer books and this one stands out as being particularly insightful. Claudia Oshry strikes a perfect balance of life story and examination of what it means to be a famous person. Where this book really shines is in the chapter diving into the differe......more

Goodreads review by Maggie on January 27, 2021

The way I feel about Claudia after reading this book can be captured by a quote from this book, “I don’t find myself really wanting to support her in an intimate way anymore.” I have been listening to the Morning Toast for two years. I’ve been to her show in San Francisco, bought the comedy special a......more

Goodreads review by Megan on January 27, 2021

I've been a long time watcher of The Morning Toast and I’ve always found the Oshry sisters funny and entertaining. I was hopeful this book would provide more insight into their upbringing, lifestyle, etc on a deeper level, but I feel like it just missed the mark. It was surface level and came across......more

Goodreads review by Molly on February 06, 2021

Flew through the audiobook and I wish it had been longer/a deeper dive. Celebrity memoirs are one of my favorite genres and I enjoyed learning about Claudia's rise to fame.
