## Resource

Gráinne is back for a very special edition of  The Way They Are  book club, diving into  Famesick  by Lena Dunham. A memoir that reads less like a victory lap and more like a slow, uneasy unravelling, it takes in blind-item anecdotes, her breakup with Jack Antonoff, and behind-the-scenes drama with her on-screen love interest Adam Driver. Chantal and Gráinne dig into the unreliable but captivating narration of one of the most fascinating celebrities of the modern era.
