Reading the blurb for Butterface made me both smile and cringe. Dogfight is one of my favourite films owing to the relationship between the main characters and the 60s music and themes. I will always remember the scene in the bathroom when Lili Taylor realises why River Phoenix brought her to the party, and I was waiting anxiously for that horrible moment to happen to Beth.I felt for Beth even before I started reading. In such a short space of time, I fell very much in like with both Beth and Lucky. They're just kids, trying to make their way in a world that can often be cruel.I liked the message at the heart of this story. Accept yourself, believe in yourself and your worth, work on your self-confidence and live.
