Bad Blood by John Carreyrou
I am really astonished by this book. How a stupid college graduate fooled the a lot of wealthy and educated people. It seems really ironic. If this book is true about the people and events it's been written then I must say this would be my first time seeing a beautiful but treacherous villain. I always thought those of kind liar and deceptive people only exist in movies. But this Prinston dropout fooled the whole world almost a decade.
When you keep reading it, it makes you hate the central characters of the book which are Elizebeth Holmes and Sunny her Old, arrogant and condescending jackass boyfriend. It is literally very much frustrating seeing how she always gets away with her lies and deceptions. In the beginning no problem she might have thought she would be able to build that kind of a sophisticated device, but after ten years she must have realized she is kidding herself and wasting millions of dollars of investors. However she kept going. It is obvious that she has lost her conscious in the process of becoming rich. I never hated any character this much and weirdly this character is real and very much alive, breathing right now. It may take some time, in her case a lot of time but eventually the truth prevails. After a decade of lying, her lie finally caught up and she lost everything plus her reputation and dignity if only she had any.
I think this was of the best non fictions I have ever read. It was incredible, I believe. You will definitely enjoy the book especially during reading when you keep searching about facts given in the book on google. It's all there and some of the characters which were Theranos employees or Ex-employee to be correct.
Best of Luck.
Enjoy
