"Miss World 1970" was a really interesting read. I saw the trailer for the upcoming movie and figured that this autobiography would also just focus on the events of the Miss World 1970 election, but it actually gave an overview over the winner's whole life.

It was really interesting to see how much Ms. Hosten managed to do during her life, how many interesting jobs she held and how her pageant win actually figured into it. I'm not really sure that I still see a place for pageants in today's society, but after reading this book I can definitely see what advantages these pageants might offer to the participants and the winners especially.

I had never heard of this controversy I found this book really entertaining .Well written very interesting glad the author won the pageant.A really god read.#netgalley#sutherlabdhouse

I thought this book was fantastic. I had never even heard of this controversy but in all fairness, I'm not a huge fan of beauty pageants. This book kept me engaged from start to finish, I loved how there was a little backstory but most everything starting off with the pageant and the protesters and then the backlash when she won. Everything was informative and enjoyable. Many thanks for letting me read this one, so good.
