This book follows, loosely, the life of a bra-fitter in various up-market department stores in the States. It touches on her own life, the loss of her mother to cancer and her relationship with her father, interspersed with anecdotes about the women she meets when they come to be fitted for bras. All life is covered - the ugly, the glamorous, the sick and the beaten down.
The result is a thought-provoking and fascinating read, which made me reflect on my own life and feminity. I didn't give it a 5* because it fell just short of my expectations, and I felt the biographical side was rather rushed, although it was necessary to add in those details in order for the reader to understand her reactions to some of her clients.
Thank you to NetGalley and Amberjack Publishing for allowing me access to the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
