Under the Influence by Noelle Crooks is a recommended, highly for some readers, novel set in the world of a major influencer.
Harper Cruz is looking for a new job and applies to work for self-help influencer Charlotte Green. Harper is hired as Charlotte’s Visionary Support Strategist in Nashville for triple her last paycheck. If she thought the job offer was high pressure, once she arrives in Nashville Harper realizes just how high pressure and cult-like the job at The Greenhouse really is where everything is all about making Charlotte Green look good and working long hours doing exactly what she wants.
This very easy to read novel feels like an update on The Devil Wears Prada.
Readers who follow or are familiar with self-help "Hey you" social
media influencers will likely relate much more to this novel than I did.
It held my attention and I finished it, but ultimately it will be
forgettable for me. However, I think a younger reader who follows
influencers on social media will enjoy it more than I did. It also fits
the description of an airplane book, interesting enough to hold your
attention but you won't care if you misplace it. Apparently if you are
familiar with the influencer the Charlotte Green character is based on,
it makes it a better novel.
