I thought this book was really funny - the humor was very absurd and reminds me of my favourite genre of film - making fun of rich people. Excellent satire and look at the wellness world and taking it to the extreme. 

Interesting analysis of race, beauty, and ethics in wellness. 

Think something like the Substance but for racism.
