Goodreads Summary:Sarah Burke is just about perfect. She's got killer blue eyes, gorgeous blond hair, and impeccable grades. There's just one tiny-all right, enormous-flaw: her nose. But even that's not so bad. Sarah's got the best best friend and big goals for print journalism fame.
On the first day of senior year, Rock Conway walks into her journalism class and, well, rocks her world. Problem is, her best friend, Kristen, falls for him too. And when Rock and Kristen stand together, it's like Barbie and Ken come to life. So when Kristen begs Sarah to help her nab Rock, Sarah does the only thing a best friend can do-she agrees. For someone so smart, what was she thinking?
My Review:
Flawless is an extremely cute novel by debut author, Lara Chapman. Its a modern and fun re-telling of the Cyrano de Bergerac story that's full of humor from start to finish. The friendship between Sarah and Kristen is great and its a really feel-good story.
Whilst it may be light read, it does get you to think past flaws in appearance and realise that looks are certainly not the be all and end all.
Another thing I loved about this book was the quotes about beauty at the start of each chapter. They are uplifting quotes that fit the story perfectly.
