Reviews

A fast-paced, highly readable history of one of the defining companies of our time. If you're interested in Snapchat, or just plain mystified by it, you must read this book.
*Brad Stone, author of THE EVERYTHING STORE and THE UPSTARTS*

A first-rate behind-the-scenes business story
*Blake J. Harris, author of CONSOLE WARS*

Gallagher takes you as close as you can get … [A] surprisingly candid book. It will probably remain the long-lasting, definitive history of the early years of a company whose unique feature is how briefly its media and messages last
*Washington Post*

In the grand tradition of Ben Mezrich's The Accidental Billionaires... an engaging look into a fascinating subculture of millions
*Booklist*

Breezy...How to Turn Down a Billion Dollars ably if uncritically chronicles the short history of a young company catering to young users, with a young chief executive, and reveals, intentionally or not, the limitations that come with that combination
*Wall Street Journal*
