My favorite section of The Wall Street Journal is Business & Finance. I followed the collapse of WeWork day by day as it happened.

A few weeks ago, there was a longer piece, adapted from this newly released book, detailing the inside story. I ordered a copy.

When it arrived, I noted that it was nearly 400 pages. I almost sent it back, not wanting to read some long, drawn out personal history on the founder. I decided to read a few pages and I couldn’t put it down. This book was all meat, no filler.

Meticulously detailed, the reader is taken from the founding of WeWork all the way through March of this year. It was very well researched, organized, and detailed. The authors are Journal reporters who covered WeWork through the years. The book read like one of the Journal’s fabulous in-depth analysis pieces. It’s my favorite kind of business book to read.

Would I recommend: YES
