AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER - NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH BY TIME MAGAZINE, AMAZON, AND KOBO - NAMED MOST ANTICIPATED BY LIT HUB, PUREWOW, AND W MAGAZINE nGossip is the only cultural tradition I care about, and Kelsey McKinney has written its Bible - Samantha Irby, #1 NYT bestselling author n nFrom the host of the Normal Gossip podcast, a delightfully insightful exploration of our obsession with gossip that weaves together journalism, cultural criticism, and memoir - now in paperback! n n As the pandemic forced us to socialize at a distance, Kelsey McKinney was mourning the juicy updates and jaw-dropping stories shed typically collect over drinks with friends--and from her hunger, the blockbuster Normal Gossip podcast was born. With listenership in the millions, Kelsey found herself thinking more critically about gossip as a form, and wanting to better understand the role it plays in our culture. n n In You Didnt Hear This From Me, McKinney explores the murkiness of everyday storytelling. Why is gossip considered a sin, and how can we better recognize when its being weaponized? Why do we think were entitled to every detail of a celebritys personal life? And how do we define gossip, anyway? As much as the book aims to treat gossip as a subject worthy of rigor, it also hopes to capture the heart of gossiping: how enchanting and fun it can be to lean over and whisper something a little salacious into your friends ear. n n With wit and honesty, McKinney unmasks what were actually searching for when we demand to know the truth--and how much the truth really matters in the first place.n
