This book has torn me. I had heard nothing but good things about it and had known very little about Emily Ratajkowski previously (it's true I swear) and was looking forward to a scathing account of the media and celebrity culture.

Instead what I found was a well written account of a naive young woman who was taken advantage of multiple times (both sexually and in business). What I couldn't move past was her lack of acknowledgement of her immense privilege and how other women in positions of vulnerability would be in a much worse position.

Very much should have read the trigger warnings before going in, but dang this is a raw, unrelenting look at the dark side of the modeling industry and the people she had to deal with along the way. This is on my list to reread in print, as the audiobook did make weird production choices that were jarring at times, but all in all read this, like now

A beautiful memoir from a wildly misunderstood woman who has always been known for her beauty. I don’t hang on to many books I read, but this will absolutely be staying on my shelf.
