Reader asked this question about Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators:

Has anyone read both Catch and Kill by Ronan Farrow and She Said by Kantor and Twohey? Do you think they are mutually exclusive (that is, if you’ve read one you needn’t necessarily read the other)? Or do they cover sufficiently different ground so as to make reading both worthwhile?

A lot of Farrow's story is just being thwarted by NBC in trying to report the story. There is some overlap but generally they are complementary. Both very much worth reading.

Both books do not just talk about the Weinstein story. Kantor and Twohey cover the Brett Kavanaugh hearing, and Farrow covers Matt Lauer and the operations of the Black Cube investigators.(less)
