The compelling, edgy, compassionate, laugh-out-loud memoir from Kari Ferrell, formerly known as the "Hipster Grifter"


Before Anna Delvey, before the Tinder Swindler, there was Kari Ferrell. Adopted at a young age by a Mormon family in Utah, Kari struggled with questions of self-worth and identity as one of the few Asian Americans in her insulated community, leading her to run with the “bad crowd” in an effort to fit in. Soon, stealing from superstores turned into picking up men (and picking their pockets), and before she knew it, Kari had graduated from petty theft to Utah’s most wanted list. Though Kari was able to escape the Southwest, she couldn’t outrun her new moniker: the Hipster Grifter.

New York City’s indie sleaze scene had found its newest celebrity—just as Kari found herself in a heap of trouble. Jail time, riots, bad checks, and an explosion of internet infamy and fetishization put her name in the spotlight. Beyond the gossip and Gawker posts, there’s a side to Kari the media never saw—until now.

By turns rollicking and irreverent, warm and compassionate, You’ll Never Believe Me tells Kari’s story for the first time. A heartfelt narrative of redemption and reconciliation as Kari eventually dedicates her life to activism, social justice, and setting the record straight, this memoir introduces a fresh, hilarious new voice to the literary stage and offers readers a nostalgic, uplifting, and at times unbelievable book that grapples with truth, why we lie, and what it means when our pasts don’t paint the whole picture.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

    <p>"Raw and riveting. With a combination of bruising vulnerability and self-deprecating humor, Ferrell’s audacious coming-of-age tale pairs the thrill of true crime with the redemptive arc of a good memoir. It’s a deliciously edgy testament to reinvention." —<i>Publishers Weekly </i>(starred review)<br><br>“Emphatically audacious, hysterical, and compelling. This is a crazy and beautiful story. Kari Ferrell writes with such heart, and she's so funny and charismatic. You can't help but root for her. Read this book!" —Cat Marnell, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>How To Murder Your Life</i><br><br>"<i>You'll Never Believe Me</i> is honest, vulnerable, raw, and a powerful and surprising story, deftly told. Kari Ferrell's firsthand account of the truth behind the headlines, the memes, and the viral sensation is a gripping and important read—and a mirror." —Mary Pilon, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Monopolists</i><br><br>"Kari is unafraid to explore both the pain and the humor in her wild tale, proving yet again that the hardest, but most important truth we will ever tell is the one about ourselves. "—Chelsea Devantez, author of <i>I Shouldn't Be Telling You This </i>and host of <i>Glamorous Trash</i> podcast<br><br>"I read this book in one day. <i>You’ll Never Believe Me</i> is a darkly funny and engrossing coming-of-age story that takes place at the intersection of the American Dream and American Apparel. Ferrell is so charming that even as her hero's journey takes her through the bad and the ugly, you can’t stop rooting for her to get to the good." —Lina Abascal, author of <i>Never Be Alone Again</i><br><br>"A shock-a-minute wild ride through the annals of the indie sleaze era. Ferrell’s search for identity in a landscape made unnavigable by the cumulative effects of religious dogma, bigotry, and institutionalization is fascinating and scorchingly honest. It’s also wickedly funny." —Kate Flannery, author of<i> Strip Tees</i><br><br>"A 'bad girl makes good' memoir with some sharp insights." <i>— Booklist</i></p>
