"Yet again, Autumn Christian has restored my faith in contemporary fiction. This novel left me wondering whether reality itself is quietly shaped by her imagination. If not, she sure as hell understands it better than most. The apex between credibility and absurdity is Christian's sweet spot, and this ride is no different—expertly done. Fanaticism, loneliness, purpose, and the WTF of our age. To understand them as she does, I’d say having this book bedside might be more important than a Bible. 'All useful people are a little dangerous.' I've long known Autumn is one of them." —Peter Rosch, author of What the Dead Can Do"A vicious, nasty satire on the emptiness of excess. It digs its stiletto nails into gurus, influencers, and the search for something real in a superficial world. Like a cult, first it will seduce you, then it will hurt you, and when you make it out the other side, it just might leave you a little wiser." —Greg Sisco, author of Thicker Than Water and "Autumn Christian deftly taps into the dark vein of Los Angeles and reveals the glitter, glam, and suffering within. She pulls you into a suffocating narrative and convinces you to dance despite seeing yourself bleed out. I’m Your Cult Leader, Baby is a masterful novel full of power dynamics, vanity, desperation, and gods." —Grant Wamack, author of The Frolicking
