Olivia Wilde<\/a> seems to be unwinding after the bitter custody settlement with her former fianc\u00e9 Jason Sudeikis<\/a>. And what better way to do that than with a good book? The 39-year-old Booksmart<\/a> <\/em>and Don\u2019t Worry, Darling<\/em> <\/a>film director glowingly endorsed New York Times<\/em> best-selling author Jessica Knoll\u2019s new novel Bright Young Women<\/em> recently.<\/p>\n

Knoll a former senior editor at Cosmopolitan<\/em> magazine in the US, wrote 2015\u2019s Luckiest Girl Alive<\/em>, a title that was later adapted into a Netflix series starring Mila Kunis. Bright Young Women<\/em>, a psychological suspense and true crime novel released on September 19, explores how two women from opposite sides of the country are brought together by the violent acts of the same man. That man was Ted Bundy.<\/p>\n

\u201cRead it on the plane and ate it up,\u201d Wilde posted to her Instagram Stories on September 27. \u201cReally interesting look at our deeply misogynistic media, legal system, and culture as a whole. A gripping true crime novelisation that doesn\u2019t fetishise violence, and actually humanises victims.\u201d<\/p>\n
