Meat Market by Juno Dawson

When sixteen year old tall girl, Jana gets unexpectedly scouted by a modelling agency she finds herself taking off faster than expected into the world as she struts her way through London Fashion Week and juggling college with the support of her friends and boyfriend Ferdy too.

Only as she books more and more work quickly she's soon jetting off to New York and beyond walking fashion week and doing campaigns until meeting Blo a photographer who changes her life forever comes into her life and the dark side of fashion and modelling prevails.

Showing the dim and toxic side to modelling in a grippy, gritting way this shows what models and fashion realistically could be facing in that world. My favourite Juno Dawson book so far!
