Natural Beauty by Ling Ling Huang

challenging dark mysterious tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

4.5

 This was insane!!! I liked the general feel and it felt familiar at the beginning (think: The Circle by Dave Eggers, new company + all these apps and things you do that end up being more of a hindrance than a benefit). I appreciate all the different ideas that went into making Holistik something a little bit different and futuristic. The twist works and I love how far it's taken! Beauty industry turns into body horror. Beautiful descriptions of music too. This book would not have been as good without the classical music side.
