Thank you to Soho Press and Team Tandem for the gifted copy of Aesthetica! All opinions in this review are my own.
I am going to be honest, there were many times throughout this book I almost DNFed it. It's not that I was bored or thought the book was terrible, but it was hard to listen to the descriptions of the cosmetic surgies and the situations that the main character was experiencing at times.
This book is a great look at how social media can become an obsession and fake it truly is. However, I think this is a book you have to physically read. I listened to the audiobook and since this is a book that is focused on social media, there are a lot of emojis it. In the audiobook, each emoji is read aloud and it can get tedious at times.
