What I’ve been reading lately!
Hey guys!
I’ve been on a bit of a reading streak lately! Well, if you consider audiobooks as reading like I do.
I thought I’d share a few books I finished this month and some thoughts I have on each one, in case you’re looking for something to add to your TBR!
1. One in a Millennial by Kate Kennedy
ONE IN A MILLENNIAL - KATE KENNEDY
Kate is the host of the podcast, Be There in Five! Her book was so nostalgic and made me smile. I found it super relatable because we grew up in the exact same era, are both hyper-aware of high school social hierarchies, both love Homegoods, and both love Taylor Swift – it was such a fun read.
2. The Messy Truth by Alli Webb
This is the true story behind the Drybar empire. I loved how real Alli was about her weaknesses! It made me feel a little better about not knowing what to do sometimes…because it seems like everyone is just trying to figure out life (and business) as well. This was a quick read – I wanted even more detail!
3. Glossy by Melisa Meltzer
This is the inside story of Emily Weiss’s Glossier and it was JUICY. It had a gossipy journalistic style tone to it, which I loved! But I have mixed feelings on this because it’s missing Emily’s perspective (as this was a book written about her) so I was left feeling like I wanted to hear more from the entrepreneur perspective.
What should I read next?
Leave me some book recs in the comments!

Kate Kennedy’s “One in a Millennial.” I knew after reading the excerpts online that this book would be on my bookshelf. I love her writing style and nostalgia for my generation. This is the book that caught my eye and my attention.
Amazing lists of books!
hi Cassey! I came to know about you few years ago when you were doing youtube workouts. Fast forward to today, I have completely forgotten that era and now that I stumbled upon your content again, I am inspired by how much you have grown – expanding beyond fitness workout, building your own brand & products and chasing your childhood dreams! I started reading a few of your blog posts and very quickly notice a small detail. Some blog posts start off with ‘Hey guys!’ and almost without a doubt I would scroll down and see it is signed off by you. It seems ironic to address your audience as ‘guys’ given that I seen your recent post of wanting to make popflex the best fitting clothing brand for women; and because of that the usage of the word seems very jarring. Do what you want with this information, I’m just another random person on the internet.
Appreciate your work so far and will be following your journey! <3
All the bright places.
