Publisher Description
In the rolling green hills of Australia's hippest hinterland, a new guru is blogging about her breakfast.
ELLE CAMPBELL is back, holed up in an exclusive retreat where women pay thousands to mimic her extreme lifestyle, or die trying. But who's bankrolling Elle's new empire? And why are her two tiny sons suddenly absent from her glossy public image?
ABI BLACK just wants to marry her true love under a tree in the garden on New Year's Eve. But her ex-husband is building a financial cult in the shed, Elle is looming and her teenage daughter's YouTube channel is gaining followers for all the wrong reasons. The wedding might have to wait.
FRANCES GRAHAM has a colicky newborn, an absent husband and a WhatsApp mothers' group that's giving her anxiety. But she's certain that if she can just be more like those fitmums on Instagram, things can only get better. And surely, if she can scrape enough money together to make it to Elle's retreat, everything in her life will be just ... perfect.
Through a world of fake gurus, green smoothies and bad influencers, How to Be Perfect follows Elle, Abi and Frankie into the cult of self-improvement that's taking over your phone ... and your breakfast.
Customer Reviews
Fun light read
I enjoyed this book and read it is just a couple of days- it’s and fun and hard to put down book.
I really loved some of the characters like Elle and Abi- these were very believable and well written.
Not really convinced about Frances though- Nurse are educated in health and would not be this daft. The Frances character would be more believable if she was a more superficial character who was vane and not someone that would know about health and weight loss. I found he character unrelatable and unbelievable but I could suspend that as I really enjoyed the story.
Gets better every time
Each time I read this book, I discover more nuance.
Loved it
I love Holly’s books. She has a great way of telling the story making the book hard to put down.
