I was no this books target audience. The book hyper focus on beauty treatments and the discussion about youth obsessed culture. The mother and daughter have a complicated relationship. I really didn’t like the woman tearing each other down throughout the novel. Lazarus moments in this novel were happening left and right, was hard to keep track of who is actually alive. I also love the tale of the Snow Queen and didn’t like the way it was weave into the story. Prior work by Mona Awad like Bunny was a 5 Star read for me.
