I appreciated this book, and I think it could prove very helpful to teens and young men who are struggling with body dysmorphia or related problems. That being said, it read more like a cautionary tale than a novel at times. I would have loved to see some of the secondary characters fleshed out a little more, and a little more time spent on the resolution. While the MC felt authentic to me, his decision making felt very abrupt. Overall a solid contemporary novel with a strong message.
