Reach for this book when your teen is grappling with the pressure to project a perfect image while feeling like a totally different person on the inside. This sequel to Airhead follows Emerson Watts, a geeky tomboy whose brain was transplanted into a supermodel's body after a freak accident. Now, she must balance her hidden intelligence with a high-stakes life of fashion shows, corporate intrigue, and the shallow expectations of the industry. It is a fast-paced, humorous exploration of identity and integrity that speaks to the 'imposter syndrome' many adolescents feel. While it deals with a sci-fi premise, the emotional core is about staying true to oneself when the world only sees the surface. It is best suited for readers aged 12 and up due to some romantic tension and mild mature themes regarding the modeling industry.
