The Make-Up Test by Jenny L. Howe
2.75
lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

i really wanted to like this. i liked the setting, and the premise, and the plus size representation. but i didn’t like any of the characters??? being in allison’s brain was so exhausting and colin SUCKEDDD. and NOTHING happened in this book for so long i ended up just skimming the second half and i don’t think i missed anything at all. sad bc the authors note and acknowledgements are really lovely but i just did not enjoy this much at all :(
