The book had an average teen twist to how a fairytale should be; that's what made it good. If i was Bee I would sure be very confused about choosing my "prince charming". They both seem nice but one just had to go, i mean it's not everyday your boyfriend breaks a very expensive car and gets you fired from a video shoot? Being a supermodel isn't all about fame and beauty, it takes brains too. Loved the book. Thumbs up!

Very good book!!! It super funny and exciting because you never expect what is going to happen. While I was reading it I felt like I was really there and in the modeling industry because of the great details. It was very inspiring and I think that this is a good book not only for plus size teens but also a regular sized teen girl. It will leave you saying "This book is ducking awesome!!!!"
