If the Shoe Fits by Julie Murphy
4.0

3.5 stars rounded up! If The Shoe Fits was an adorable Cinderella-type rom-com!

PLEASE NOTE: I listened to this on audio and I wasn't the biggest fan of the narrator's voice. (It was very cheesy and a little cringey at times) so please know this going into the audio!

I enjoyed the story a lot but didn't see as much of a connection between Cindy and Henry. I loved Cindy's journey and how she was UNAPOLOGETICALLY fat. She never once apologized for her size and I loved that aspect of the book. However, I was looking forward to some steamy scenes because there are very few with plus-sized women. I realized after I finished that the book is level zero when it comes to steam.

I think this was a cute, easy rom-com and I love the plus-sized rep!
