Dangerous Influence - by Sally Nicholls (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Acclaimed author Sally Nicholls delivers a gripping and thought-provoking portrayal of the complex dynamics of influencer culture and the dangers of 'sharenting'.

Ever since she was little, Anna and her sister Josie have been the main feature of her mum's vlogs and social media posts, which have documented every moment of their lives, from family dinners to temper tantrums. While Josie seems to enjoy the attention, Anna has always felt uncomfortable with her entire life being laid bare online.

But then it becomes clear that Josie is being stalked by one of her followers, and both girls decide that enough is enough. They refuse to allow their mom to film them any more, but will she finally take them seriously when her entire livelihood depends on Anna and Josie being content for her followers?
