In Louise O'Neill's world, beauty is the ultimate duty of every girl. Born and raised in Schools, they are trained to please men until they come of age. For Freida and Isabel, aged sixteen and in their final year, being selected as companions - wives to powerful men - is the only option. But with the pressure to be perfect mounting, the consequences of failure become too horrific to contemplate. As the intensity of final year takes hold, Isabel starts to self-destruct, putting her beauty at risk. The sealed female environment is disrupted by the arrival of boys eager to choose a bride. Freida must fight for her future, even if it means betraying the one person she has ever loved. This is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that explores the darker side of beauty and the societal pressures that come with it.
