Book Reviews – B as in Beauty

B as in Beauty

Author: Alberto Ferreras

Broad Z: We’ve all been there. For me it’s a glance in the mirror and the realization that I don’t look the way that I’d like to and there goes the self-image. For Beauty, it’s her name. Overweight since she was a child and constantly reminded by her name, that she isn’t what her name says she is. Beauty, never feeling like she belongs. She just uses the letter “B”, as Beauty seems like a cruel joke to her.

Stuck in a job that she loves, but has no chance of advancing because of her looks, “B” feels destined to be stuck. That is until she meets a strange woman who helps her find herself in the most unusual way.

This book is a fun, quick read, that catches you at that point between laughing out loud and feeling sad. You’ll enjoy reading the encounters “B” has as she “comforts” men and grows to love herself just the way that she is.

Broad A: OMG, what a great read! The minute I read “B is for Beauty” I started relating! I believe I felt the same way all the way through college! B is an overweight Latino girl with an unnourished beauty. She has a lousy job where she works for a fiend (don’t we all?), she hates herself for being fat, her friend Lillian is a narcissist. When Beauty meets Madame Sokolov and takes on the side job of “comfort provider” I thought I would never stop laughing. Ferreras has caught every nuance of female insecurity and degradation and turned it into a beautiful book about finding our true beauty and flaunting it! I loved it. Hysterical, melancholy, angry, happy, delightful and sad, I would never have read this book if Zippy hadn’t sent it to me! What a great girlie novel by a believe it or not fab male writer! I WANT TO INTERVIEW THIS MAN! Thanks Zip!

Overall 4.5 and I have to go now to read it again! The A Broad
