This book was a nice summer read. I had a few issues with it, but overall think it would be a good beach read for the summer. 

The things I liked were the characters - I think the author did a nice job making even side characters feel fairly fleshed out and important - and the friendship. The ride or die nature of the main character’s BFFs was really fun to read about. 

The writing style was tough for me, because it was “tell” more than “show” for a lot of the plot. I also think this is a book meant for someone very early on in their body neutrality / fat acceptance journey. The language around bodies seemed geared toward how the main character’s body looked to men, rather than how she felt about it. And it was corny sometimes. 

Overall, I likely would have DNFed this earlier on if it wasn’t an ARC, but as it is, I’m not mad that I finished it!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
