I have some mixed feelings regarding this book, while I understand how hard it must be for Emily however, the industry that is all about people's body and sexuality. Trying to make an industry built on objectication of women's bodies - it seems rather naive to think that modelling anything other than sexist.

Performance and read well by Emily, if this modelling thing does work she definitely go into voice work lol

Well written and full of stories of experiences, Schaerer does a good job of being so pro-female relationship it was hard to critique. That being said, I think there was not a enough discussion about women who don't have many female friends. I wished she did more research on other's experiences rather than talking to people she knows or people from within her circle.

There were some interesting topics and viewpoints that were discussed in the book. Although I don't agree with everything I think Mooro has expressed her experience in open and non-judgmental way. Definitely worth checking out.

The story was very interesting but terrible performance from male actor, accents were poor at best and racist at worse.

People have been raving and ranting about this book for months and years. And quite frankly as self-help books go it isn't great. The author comes off arrogant and self-righteous. With obvious observations, I question whether there was real self-reflection g in his "journey" or is this another way to make money. Also it is easy to bounce back when you're white upper-middle class, university educated male.

For a light read, this was pretty good. The characters weren't well developed however the twists and turns of the story will be enough to get you through the book. The performances were excellent.

This was a great read, it was funny and sometimes a little sad. But most of all it gave you a great understanding of how it was like to live and grow up in South Africa. Trevor Noah's performance was great. Highly Recommended.

The story was interesting and well written. Lagged a few times and there was times it got a little boring.

The Southern accent was really annoying - maybe because I'm not use to it.
