#GIRLBOSS is a bestseller, and incredibly popular biography about Sophia Amoruso and her rise to success. This book goes beyond a “good read” or an inspiring work story, as Sophia empowers females to be driven and encouraged in their dreams.
I was so excited to read this book, seeing as I love Nasty Gal (even though it is WAY beyond my price range), and my friends had made special trips to Barnes and Noble to buy it. Throughout the novel, we find that Sophia initially started at a boring, routine, day job that didn’t satisfy or cater to her ambitions. The health insurance and other benefits weren’t enough to keep her attention, so Sophia began to sell vintage clothing online. eBay was her first claim to fame as she, over time, developed into a thriving business—Nasty Gal.
As Founder and Executive Chairman, Sophia uses her company as a symbol of her passion, and that is that anyone can be in control of their own life. Only you can hold yourself back, so like Sophia did, become a boss.
I think Sophia’s story is inspiring and it is a great motivator to believe in my dreams and to never settle. I would recommend her book to girls who need that quick pick-me-up, or motivating read to remind them that nothing and nobody can hold you back from your aspirations and dreams.
