A book revolving around a model who turned into a marine sounds intriguing. It is good that the switches in times isn't confusing, that the story isn't bogged down by military terms, and that the book was well edited. Not for me, but I am glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for the review!

At first I didn't think I would like reading this book as I normally avoid war stories and/or violent content. However, after reading your review I am intrigued. I'm interested in playful use of chronology and laying of clues for a reader to follow. And since it is so well edited, that's another plus!

Wow. This book sounds like it smashes stereotypes left, right and centre. I do not support the military, but nevertheless am hooked on its premise. Thanks for your review.

Molly Munroe is a stage actress, and she enjoys acting on stage, but after graduation, Molly joins Marine Corps. Molly enjoys the military's life as a Combat Camera Marine in Afghanistan. The plot seems to be emotional and intense.

I have always been curious about women in the marine corps. I would love to see how this story unfolds, as the review has really raised my expectations. Congrats on BOTD.

This is one of the best review l have come across here. It gives a critical analysis of the book even though it is not too lengthy.
Kandscreeley began the review from the ending, this clearly shows professionalism and long time experience.
This review has left me with the urge to read this particular book, therefore l will add it to my shelf.

It's hard to embark on a journey when everyone expects you to do something else. I like that Molly wants more out of her life. The idea of the narration jumping around in her past and present is daunting, but it sounds like it was well-done.

From acting and beauty pageants to the marines—Molly sounds like a complex character. With excellent editing and skillful weaving of the plot, this book sounds like a must-read!

I will love to dive into this novel. As I was reading the review it reminded me of the movie , ”Miss Congeniality”, but in reverse. The officer could easily cope with the lifestyle of a Model, Celebrity. But a Model living a life of Marine Officer is something to read.
Unfortunately, I was unable to get a free copy as Amazon doesn't allow my country. I will soon grab the copy from any other site.
Thank you for insightful review.

It made me curious Why the model entered a Marine Corps.
Congratulations on being BOTD
