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  “ Gossip is the only cultural tradition I care about and Kelsey McKinney has written its Bible” – Samantha Irby #1  NYT  bestselling author From 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! As the pandemic forced us to socialize at a distance Kelsey McKinney was mourning the juicy updates and jaw-dropping stories she’d 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. In You Didn' t Hear This From Me McKinney explores the murkiness of everyday storytelling. Why is gossip considered a sin and how can we better recognize when it' s being weaponized? Why do we think we’re entitled to every detail of a celebrity’s 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 friend’s ear. With wit and honesty McKinney unmasks what we' re actually searching for when we demand to know the truth—and how much the truth really matters in the first place.
