A review by freyaaskew
My Body by Emily Ratajkowski

5.0

the singular way that this book captures a common feeling that every woman has experienced - without the context of modelling - is deserving of praise in and of itself.

but the way that ratajkowski discusses the reification and commodification of her body with such reverent prose is astounding. her discussion of body politics is moving, thought-provoking and all encompassing, all at once.

i regret not reading it sooner. i regret the misconceptions i had prior to reading. i could not put it down
