About this listen
Sharp, dramatic, and full of insider dish, Sophia of Silicon Valley is one woman's story of a career storming the corridors of geek power and living in the shadow of its outrageous cast of maestros.
During the heady years of the tech boom, incorrigibly frank Sophia Young lucks into a job that puts her directly in the path of Scott Kraft, the eccentric CEO of Treehouse, a studio whose animated films are transforming movies forever. Overnight, Sophia becomes an unlikely nerd whisperer. Whether her success is due to dumb luck, savage assertiveness, insightful finesse (learned by dealing with her irrational Chinese immigrant mother), or a combination of all three, in her rarified position she finds she can truly shine.
As Scott Kraft's right-hand woman, whip-smart Sophia is in the eye of the storm, sometimes floundering, sometimes nearly losing relationships and her health, but ultimately learning what it means to take charge of her own future the way the men around her do. But when engineer/inventor Andre Stark hires her to run his company's investor relations, Sophia discovers that the big paycheck and high-status career she's created for herself may not be worth living in the toxic environment of a boys' club gone bad.

Sasha has had it. She cannot bring herself to respond to another inane, “urgent” email or participate in the corporate employee joyfulness program. She hasn’t seen her friends in months. Sex? Seems like a lot of effort. Even cooking dinner takes far too much planning. Sasha has hit a wall. Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga, and find peace, she heads to the seaside resort she loved as a child. But it’s the off season, the hotel is in a dilapidated shambles, and she has to share the beach with the only other occupant: a grumpy guy named Finn.

Story
On the surface, these seven women are as different as can be - but each has had her share of bad luck, from cheating husbands to sexist colleagues to a legal system that often doesn't do its job. Now, drawn together by tragedy, they're forging a bond that will help them right the wrongs committed against them and discover an inner strength they didn't know they had. The Sisterhood is learning that when bad things happen, you can roll over and play dead...or you can get up fighting...

A wonderful, modern day fairytale
Sophia is the heroine who rescues herself. I loved every minute of it, and I hope there is a sequel to come.

UMMMM...
I feel like this book was on a great track and then it just... got very lost. I feel like characters were developed and then lost completely. I wasn't a fan.

Outstanding!
This will go down as one of my favorite books I’ve ever listened to on Audible. It’s a rush of emotions; you root for the main character and can’t wait to hear the next chapter. The author does an outstanding job of grabbing your attention and holding it until the very end. Can’t wait to read her next work!

I loved this book!
I chose this book because it looked like it would be a nice, easy, light read. I was hooked from the beginning. Everything about it was entertaining. Sophia’s character, her life, career, etc are all so interesting. I kept wanting to know what she was going to do next. I was so disappointed when I came to the end. I hope another book is in the works soon!

No likable characters
This book had a lot of potential, but honestly I just got tired of hating every character and gave up with 2 hours to go. Disappointing.

Great performance by Emily Woo
I first bought the Kindle electronic book of this novel. But before long, I thought that I did not have much time sitting and reading this novel that I don’t want to skip any details. Then I thought I could finish reading the book by listening to it. So I tried to search the title on Audible, and I found it. To my surprise, the performance of the narrator is better than I expected. I love listening to this book.
