The thoughts shared here are solely mine.
This book became one of my favorites because I read it all in one sitting.
And a girl who has felt invisible her whole life, growing up in loneliness. Her own mother didn’t love her, and her father blamed her, as her mother left to pursue a modeling career.
This book takes you on an emotional Rollercoaster—you feel sad, happy, and even angry at times. However, it’s not a heart-melting story. Antonia’s character is what I truly love—her bravery and confidence in shaping her own future stand out.

My Review
Beautiful is an emotional and inspiring story about Veronique Vincent, a famous supermodel whose life changes after a tragic terrorist attack. She loses her mother and suffers severe facial injuries, forcing her to rethink her identity and what truly matters in life.
This book explores themes of grief, self-discovery, and inner beauty. Veronique’s journey from heartbreak to finding a new purpose is touching, though at times, her emotions could have been explored more deeply. The writing is simple and easy to follow, making it a fast and engaging read.
While the story is somewhat predictable, its message is powerful: true beauty comes from within. It’s a great book for those who enjoy emotional, character-driven stories.
