Bad Influence - Oenone Forbat Taschenbuch

'An ideal summer read' EVENING STANDARD 'Equal parts insightful and entertaining - whatever your take on influencers Bad Influence is a great read' YOMI ADEGOKE Oenone didn't set out to become an influencer. The word barely existed when she started posting on Instagram at university to document her 'fitness journey' after a toxic relationship came to a messy end. In this humorous meditation on her digitized life Oenone chronicles the pits and peaks of coming of age online. Grappling with modern-day issues on a public stage - from body image and personal boundaries to the limitations of onlin e activism Bad Influence examines what happens when your day-to-day reality becomes #content - and that #content pays your bills. It asks: can you truly be authentic online? Can social media be a force for good? Is it necessarily bad for our mental health? Written with wit warmth and honesty this is a candid account of what it really means to be an influencer from someone still figuring it out: the good the bad and the instagrammable. 'Warm juicy and eye-opening like having a chat with a best friend' ANNIE LORD 'If ever a book captured the zeitgeist this is it' GRACE CAMPBELL 'Funny warm and brilliantly engaging' LUCY VINE
