Guy's Girl
by Emma Noyes
Thanks to Let’s Talk Books Promo and Berkley for the copy of this book!
Sad romance is one of my absolute favorite genres, and Guy's Girl falls directly into that category. Ginny struggles with eating disorders her whole life, and since the author drew on her own experiences, this storyline was absolutely perfect. I haven't personally struggled with this, but heard from a few friends who read that it was done well, and I learned a lot and related heavily to the "not happy with your body" / body dysmorphia piece. The romance between Ginny and Adrian was a lot of skirting around each other for their entire friendship / relationship. It's definitely a slow burn, but I like that Adrian's character had a lot of depth and we got a look into his past as well. I really loved the last 25% and how everything ended up. Honestly, I think this is one that will come back to my mind for awhile after finishing, as there's quite a bit to unpack. This is perfect for anyone who's ever felt like they're not enough.
