Jemima J

“She had always thought that being thin was the key to happiness.”

Jemima thinks changing her body will change her entire life. She gets the thin body. She realizes she still feels like the same lonely girl inside.

“Ben was the only one who really saw her.”

Ben treats her better when she is heavier than anyone else does. He sees her wit and her heart before the makeover even happens. That kind of friendship is rare.

JJ is the version of herself she created for the internet. Living up to that digital image becomes a total nightmare. It makes real life feel like a lie.

Kilara is technically beautiful but completely miserable. Her cruelty comes from a place of deep insecurity. It shows that being pretty doesn't fix a mean soul.
