I found this didn't grip me as much as Bad Blood did (the book about Theranos, another dodgy startup with a charismatic founder). Probably because the stakes were lower and they actually did have a real product (albeit one that's not really profitable).

At the end, Neumann walks away with hundreds of millions of dollars and WeWork still exists as a company so it doesn't quite have that satisfying feeling of justice either!

Nonetheless it was still an entertaining read.
