Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

This book has been bandied about as thriller of the year; thriller of the decade even. Because of these labels, I have been reluctant to read it. Books with these recommendations never live up to expectations. But the hype continues and I acquiesced. And once again, a book fails to live up to its reputation. It is a good book (a book you read quickly on a beach holiday and have forgotten by next year); but not a great book. The positives: it is gripping, the central villain has great psychological complexity and there are some minor plot twists that were not originally obvious. The bad: it is slow, after 200 odd pages we finally realize what we suspected all along. Beyond the central villain every single character is a recognizable and predictable stereotype with no originality. The worst part of this book was the predictability of the central plot twists, I kept waiting for something breathtakingly original to happen and was bitterly disappointed.

THE BEAUTY MYTH Naomi Wolf's

The Beauty Myth Summary
The Beauty Myth

The basic premise of THE BEAUTY MYTH is that forced adherence to standards of physical beauty has grown stronger for women as they gained power in other societal arenas. Wolf argues that this standard of beauty has taken over the work of social coercion formerly left to myths about motherhood, domesticity, chastity, and passivity, all of which have been used to keep women powerless. In the author’s view, “the gaunt, youthful model [has] supplanted the happy housewife as the arbiter of successful womanhood.” The myth of beauty spreads the belief that an objective measurement of beauty exists, and that woman must want to embody it, and that men must want such women.

However, Wolf contends that the beauty myth is really not about women, it is about men’s institutions and power. Beauty is about behavior, not appearance. The qualities labelled “beautiful” in women in any given time period are no more than symbols of female behavior considered desirable at that time. Besides weakening women psychologically, the beauty myth feeds a multibillion-dollar cosmetics industry, and keeps women from rising too high in the workplace by offering a way around antidiscrimination laws.

THE BEAUTY MYTH is an impassioned book. While occasionally didactic, it is carefully thought out and backed by exhaustive research. Wolf offers chapters on how the beauty myth functions at work, in the media and culture, in the religious sphere, and in sex and sexual relations; she also discusses relationship to violence against women by men and by women themselves in the form of eating disorders and cosmetic surgery. In a final chapter Wolf calls for a third wave of feminism that will dismantle the societal machinery that enforces adherence to the beauty myth.
