Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Dr. Amanda Czerniawski does a great job of giving us a clear vision into the life of modeling, specifically, plus size modeling. As a secondary educator, I feel this is a great book to help girls interested in modeling see exactly what they are getting themselves into, good and bad. For all who work with teens and young adults, it's a great tool to help them and their mentees understand how culture influences self image.
Amanda interweaves an interesting narrative of the science of her experience along with the personal reflections from her point of view and also that of models which was very interesting to me. I especially appreciated her honesty in the vulnerability she had to face as she stepped into a unique world of plus size modeling. Her story is real and well researched.

Format: Paperback
read about a quarter of the book and then skimmed to the end. Found it hard to read. Writer appeared to feel superior and I didn't like her tone.
