Elizabeth Holmes wanted to be the next Steve Jobs. But John Carreyrou’s reporting in Bad Blood shows that her Silicon Valley start-up, Theranos, turned out to be an enormous fraud, and we burned through the book in 2 days. Holmes started Theranos when she was 19, having dropped out of Stanford University, and she claimed to have devised blood tests that only required very small amounts of blood at Theranos. She became the world’s youngest billionaire on the way to a federal indictment for defrauding investors. 

Very quietly, the Tina Fey-produced Netflix show starring Ellie Kemper and Tituss Burgess has consistently nailed the sweetness/satire bullseye. When you just want to forget all of your real problems, you can drop into Kimmy and Tituss’s fake ones, in a world that’s weirdly compelling and often hilarious.

Maybe I’m biased because I know all the thought and care that goes into every bead on each sandal, but I am so glad the weather is hot so I can wear my gorgeous, handmade Wazi shoes. The fact that a portion of the proceeds supports nursing scholarships in East Africa makes me happy every time I slip them on.

After a delayed opening, Rail Park is due to open this spring. The 3-mile “park” will traverse parts of the city, turning unused rail lines built by the Philadelphia Reading Railroad into a greenway for pedestrians and bicyclists.

The trailer for RBG, a documentary on Ruth Bader Ginsberg, the 84-year-old, Brooklyn-born Supreme Court justice, gave me goosebumps. There’s plenty I don’t know about the relentless defender of civil rights, but I know where I’ll be on May 4 when the movie hits theaters.

The New York Times called Rise the Friday Night Lights for theater kids, but for me, this NBC show is more This Is Us meets Glee. Either way, it’s good, and I am an instant addict.
