Swifties React to the Big News

Unsurprisingly, the Swiftie fandom is buzzing with excitement. For years, some fans speculated that Swift might have dabbled in writing under pseudonyms, with rumors circulating that she could be behind the novel Argyle. Many had also hoped she would eventually pen a memoir, and while this new book may not be an autobiography, it’s more than enough to satisfy her fans’ wishes for now.
