Pretty disappointing overall. The photographs were not curated very well, so even with the organizational scheme of A-Z style points the collection looked very slap-dash. I would have preferred a chronological presentation, since it is clear that Lady Gaga's style evolved over time as she explored different themes and partnered with different designers. Choosing to focus on broader topics such as hair or sunglasses (which weren't even internally organized very well) just made the book look like a random conglomeration of images. I would have cut the author some slack if the images were high quality enough for me to ignore the curation, but the majority of them look like they have been taken from tabloid sources or the internet and therefore don't present Gaga's image to the full extent.

Additionally the writing was absolutely atrocious. Run-on sentences, half-formed ideas, and sycophantic tones made the photo captions the last little thorn in my side while reading this book.… (plus d'informations)
