#GIRLBOSS

In theÂ New York TimesÂ bestseller that theÂ Washington PostÂ called â‚¬Å“Lean InÂ for misfits,â‚¬Â Sophia Amoruso shares how she went from dumpster diving to founding one of the fastest-growing retailers in the world.

Amoruso spent her teens hitchhiking, committing petty theft, and scrounging in dumpsters for leftover bagels. By age twenty-two she had dropped out of school, and was broke, directionless, and checking IDs in the lobby of an art schoolâ‚¬"a job sheâ‚¬d taken for the health insurance. It was in that lobby that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay.

Flash forward to today, and sheâ‚¬s the founder of Nasty Gal and the founder and CEO of Girlboss. Sophia was never a typical CEO, or a typical anything, and sheâ‚¬s writtenÂ #GIRLBOSSÂ for other girls like her: outsiders (and insiders) seeking a unique path to success, even when that path is windy as all hell and lined with naysayers.

#GIRLBOSSÂ proves that being successful isnâ‚¬t about where you went to college or how popular you were in high school. Itâ‚¬s about trusting your instincts and following your gut; knowing which rules to follow and which to break; when to button up and when to let your freak flag fly.

â‚¬Å“A witty and cleverly told account . . . Itâ‚¬s this kind of honest advice, plus the humorous ups and downs of her rise in online retail, that make the book so appealing.â‚¬Â â‚¬"Los Angeles Times

â‚¬Å“Amoruso teaches the innovative and entrepreneurial among us to play to our strengths, learn from our mistakes, and know when to break a few of the traditional rules.â‚¬Â â‚¬"Vanity Fair
