Bookreview: Beauty

 

Amazing story! 

Summary

Amy Wong is an up-and-coming designer in the New York fashion industry;
she is young, beautiful and has it all. But she finds herself at odds with rival
designers in a world rife with chauvinism and prejudice. 

In her personal life, she struggles with marriage and motherhood, finding
that her choices often fall short of her traditional family's expectations. 

Derailed again and again, Amy must confront her own limitations to succeed
as the designer and the person she wants to be. 

My Review

While reading and reviewing a book, I always make some notes,
which I transform into a review.

These are my notes while reading "Beauty": 

- the main character was deepened out very well;
- easy reading; 

- nicely written. 

I loved both the story, the storytelling and the dialogues as well. 

I would like to recommend this book to all the readers who love
women stories and novels. 

I would like to give this book a 5* rating!
