One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London
5.0

Bea is a plus sized fashion blogger who, after finding herself heartbroken, decides to participate in a reality dating show with 25 suitors. Her initial intent is simply to further her career, but then some plot twists come her way.

The premise of this book hooked me from the get-go, and then the book itself did exactly the same. I was constantly wide eyed, asking myself what Bea would do next. I really loved the different ways the story was told: via blog, podcast transcripts, text message chats; etc. It was really a great way to give the reader insight into points of view other than just Bea's. That didn't, however, stop the author from genuinely surprising me several times!

I loved this book, it was just the off-beat romance I needed in my life.
