4.5

The first 2/3 of this book were amazing, but the final 1/3 felt like it didn’t contain the same depth. Nonetheless this was a novel I couldn’t put down! 

This story had so much to say about the beauty world, homogenization, white supremacy, and capitalism. It was such a devastating read and the ending was too real. The writing and craft of this was artfully done and absolutely beautiful.
