A great summer read!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I bought this book for my daughter to read on our beach holiday and she LOVED IT!! She read it in two days!! Kerlin really knows what she is talking about because she herself used to be a model. I love how she shows the good, the bad, and the ugly sides of the fashion world. I am also happy to see she makes out alive in one piece!! 5 stars!!
What a funny book!

This book is great. I read a lot, and some of the books I read are pretty heavy fiction or brainy non-fiction, and this was a nice change of pace for me. The scenarios in this book were hilarious, even if they were a stretch of what probably really does go on in the world of modeling. The partying, the drugs, the clothes, the betrayal - all of these things combined made for a great story with a lot of drama. It was very entertaining, and a fast, fun read that wasn't too intense.
Guilty Pleasure

I thoroughly enjoyed this read. As an "America's Next Top Model" addict, this fed my habit. This won't require deep thought, but it is a good rainy day book.
The secrets are out

I used to work in the fashion/modeling industry for a couple years, before leaving to go to grad school, of all places. I got this book as a gift and oh boy did it bring me back to the good ole' days. A pretty honest, and therefore a pretty hilarious, behind-the-scenes look at the biz... It's a pretty quick read - I finished it in two nights. Highly recommended also for aspiring models. You might change your mind after reading what happened to poor Heather!
That's entertainment

Love it. In fact, I think I owe my sanity to this book - it's the perfect antidote to a week of wholesome holiday family fun. It's hardly going to win a Pulitzer, but if you're tired of the usual toothless chick-lit favorites ("Oh no! I'm unmarried and saddled with a wacky family/zany group of close friends! Will I ever meet that mystery man?") then you'll enjoy the glamour and the wicked humor. For a New Yorker and a loyal (secret) viewer of America's Next Top Model and Project Runway, Kerlin's book was a complete guilty pleasure.
