How Received: author
Violet Greenfield's life changes forever when a lady in giant Chanel shades tells her she could be IT, the next Kate Moss-but taller, and without the PR problems. That's how Violet winds up with a business card in the front pocket of her jeans on her first day as a senior in high school. Angela Blythe from Tryst Models in New York City wants to put Violet on a plane and whisk her into the world of high-heeled boots and oversized sunglasses. Tall, skinny Violet, who's been P-L-A-I-N practically forever.
And guess what? She's going.
First of all, Melissa, you're amazing for sending me this when you saw it on my wish list. You rock!
Oh em gee. I loved this book. From page one, I was hooked - mainly because my friend Samurai looks /exactly/ like Violet, so, of course, I could relate. It was, though, a fantastically written story with characters I loved and characters I loved to hate. This is, without a doubt, one of the best books I've read so far this year. I couldn't put it down!
Overall Rating: 10/10, easily.
Happy reading!
