A review by megansoetaert
Rouge by Mona Awad

dark medium-paced

4.5

whaaatttt…… the hell
this was my first Mona Awad book and i came out of it feeling 😵‍💫😵‍💫  when i finished, i thought “i’m not creative enough to be a writer, bc what was that” lmao 

Mira’s journey in the book showed the horrors & confusion of white beauty standards, the skincare craze, obsession, mother/daughter relationships, and crazy ass rich people. I loved it! i do think the ending was lacking, particularly in the discussion of whiteness
