Watch out Brad Stone—MacKenzie Bezos has her husband’s back. The wife of Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos took to her husband's website to trash Stone's new tell-all The Everything Store. “The book is...full of techniques which stretch the boundaries of non-fiction,” MacKenzie wrote in her one-star review, accusing Stone of making up motives for her husband, who did not cooperate with the book.

The book depicts Bezos and Amazon as hard-charging, insatiable, and excessively secretive. But despite MacKenzie's thrashing, it's been well-reviewed by critics and other Amazon commenters.

The question is, of course, “Was this review helpful to you?”
