For our first Le Book Club selection, we’re reading Looks Perfect by Jessica Siskin, a sharp, witty novel set against the worlds of fashion and social media. Stella Lerner is a buzzy fashion designer with a million followers and a career on the verge of going global. From the outside, her life looks perfect. Behind the screen, her relationship is unraveling and the pressure to maintain the image she’s created is becoming harder to ignore.
Inspired in part by Siskin’s own experiences in fashion and as a creator, Looks Perfect explores ambition, identity, authenticity, and what it means to feel truly seen, making it a fitting place to begin a book club built around gathering and conversation.
