Mezrich employs a dramatized, speculative approach, including imagined dialog and composite characters. The narrative jumps between the perspectives of Musk and Twitter employees like product manager Esther Crawford, who tries to guide Elon Musk decisions. Ultimately, the book paints a portrait of a volatile, paranoid leader who values loyalty and struggles to manage the platform he fought hard to acquire.

But it does highlight the clashing egos and cultures now colliding under the banner of Elon Musk Twitter.
