  I loved every word, paragraph, page and chapter!
  I know many others will find Dana Kline’s book “Beautyland” interesting and a great read. I just loved it.

• Mike V

  Dana Kline not only knows the beauty industry inside and out – she knows human nature.  “Beautyland” showcases the best and the worst in people, populated as it is by a cast of very life-like characters with all of the cunning and avarice that unfortunately have come to epitomize the world of business today.
   
  Yet, just beneath the surface of this hard to put down book, there remains a steady stream of optimism, a hope that strength of character can somehow overcome adversity. From page one to the very end, it keeps you wondering what could possibly happen next.

  Beautyland is hard to put down, engaging the reader from the first word, a riveting story of a women who knows her destiny and never gives up. Dana Kline’s writing makes you feel every emotion deeply and twists and turns in the story are ones you would never expect. I didn’t want to put the book to end as I felt like I was saying goodbye to my friend. You will truly love this book.
  

• Leslie Davis Guccione

  BEAUTYLAND is a coming of age story in the broadest sense. The daughter of grifters; fleeing her dysfunctional background yet loyal to her roots & the hometown boy she loves; reinventing herself as she goes; full blown success; ultimately caught in a web of corruption but savvy enough not only to recognize it, but also to come to terms with what she really needs to triumph. She follows her moral compass until it intimately finds true north

  I couldn't put this book down. I wanted to see Emma make it through the power hungry beauty business world after coming from nothing.

• Piia

  Beautyland is a must-read to anyone who has been making their career in the beauty industry; the story of the hard-working girl rising to the very top of the industry is not only compelling, it is so relatable (we've all met some of those characters no matter where you work). You cannot wait to read where the next page will take her!

  I really engaged with the storyline, with each character they are well described and well-formed, the devilish ones as well as the little more angelic.
  
  I loved the description of the SJP worthy shopping sprees. Emma’s wardrobe grew as her expertise did et voila, hello head to toe haute couture.
  
  The spine of the novel is of course all about business in Beautyland, but it’s beautifully cushioned out with so much more. A very clever novel.
  
  I really highly rate it and thoroughly enjoyed it!

  Beautyland was such an interesting read for me, it follows the story of Emma, who is a determined woman making her way to the top of the beauty industry. This book is perfect for anyone who is in the beauty industry already or wants to make it, very inspiring! Beautyland keeps you excited, it’s the book that keeps on giving with each page more interesting than the last.
