I just finished this.

Great book - really engaging, informative and well written (there were a couple of parts that low key made me want to cry a little bit because they were kinda sad). I particularly liked the chapters on Charlie's early life and his involvement with J6. Learning more stuff about Candace was cool as well.

Criticism wise, I'm a bit disappointed there wasn't any mention of the 2019 Groyper Wars - kinda of a missed opportunity since they help to show how Charlie evolved and became more extreme in his politics but I digress...

Also the book came out in 2022 which technically makes it a bit out of date but I guess that's not really something under Spencer's control so yeah...

But yeah, great book - 8.75/10

To answer @pawglia 's question, here are some extracts from Chapter 18 and 19 about Charlie and J6.

Hope this helps.

This is so interesting, thank you ❤️. Especially that Charlie was living on iced coffee and perfect bars; seeing videos from that time you can see him slowly falling into madness and his rethoric becoming stronger.

I was hoping it to touch on the J6 committee transcript. He pleaded "the 5th" on the whole thing.

My birthday was a few weeks ago and my mum's American friend got me 'Raising them Right' by Kyle Spencer (I've wanted to get it since Alexander Avila talked about in his Charlie Kirk documentary). From my understanding, it's basically an account of how Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens built their brand.

I started reading it a couple of days ago and then put it down almost immediately after being greeted by this absolute gem of a paragraph:

"Well manicured hand"...

I read that and I had to:
