  1. Rohan Sachdeva

    A solid biography, but I was hoping for more personal anecdotes. Still worth reading for Didion fans.

  2. Ashmit Ghosh

    It’s an okay book. I wish it was a little less ‘telling’ and more ‘showing’.

  3. Nitesh Kumar

    A well-researched biography that offers a fresh perspective on Didion’s life and work. Highly recommend.

  4. Megha Sapra

    A great introduction to Joan Didion’s world. I especially enjoyed the analysis of her key works.

  5. Kavya Yadav

    A decent overview, but I wished it dug a little deeper into her personal struggles. Still, a good starting point.

  6. Mayank

    The writing felt a bit repetitive at times. Overall, a good summary of Didion’s career.

  7. Prachi Joshi

    Enjoyable and informative, though at times it felt a bit too academic. Still, I learned a lot.

  8. Pritesh Ghosh

    While I found the details interesting, the book felt somewhat detached from Didion’s emotional core.

  9. Hemant Kumar

    This book is insightful. It has a lot of research and really understand the work of Joan Didion.

  10. Sanchay Jindal

    An absolute masterpiece. The author really ‘gets’ Didion and her unique voice.

  11. Ajay Deepak Nakil

    I appreciated the insights, but the writing style was a little dry for my taste. Good, but not great.

  12. Anonymous

    The book lacked focus. Too much jumping around, not enough depth in one area.

  13. Akash Ankit

    A fascinating look into Didion’s life and work. McDonnell’s passion for the subject shines through.

  14. Pari Kesharwani

    McDonnell captures Didion’s essence beautifully. A must-read for any fan. Insightful and well-written.

  15. Abhishek Kumar

    It’s a so so book. I was hoping for more in-depth exploration of her personal life. It was a bit surface-level.

  16. Mayank Dhanjal

    Excellent biography! McDonnell provides a comprehensive and engaging portrait of a literary icon.

  17. Shivamraj

    This book truly captures the spirit of Joan Didion. I feel like I understand her so much better now.
