This book is a great source for anyone looking to unlearn diet culture and learn how to combat fatphobia! the author does a great job of breaking down how and why our society is fatphobic. If you have read a lot of anti diet/fat acceptance books, there is not anything radically new in this one, but I did appreciate Kate's perspectives on things! 

This is such a good YA! Pirates, a magical prince, merman, kidnapping, adventures! I loved the romance in this and how the main character was dedicated to his love. And the way he was so dedicated to his family! 

This was good, I think? It is not written like anything else I’ve read before. It’s an example of how every person processes grief in a different way. I was intrigued the entire book. Very character drive with lots of memories and flashbacks. 

This made me sob. This story is so heartbreaking. It’s about family and self. About our pasts catching up with us. 

We love fat rep!! And it’s so well done in this book. The descriptions of Leah’s body are beautiful, which is so rare for a fat character. The story was a little slow at parts, but i thought the writing was good. While I hated the lack of quotation marks, I enjoyed the perspective the book is written in. 

A cute marriage of convenience/second chance romance. Some of the characters’ bickering dialogue annoyed me, but overall I really enjoyed this 

This book packs a lot in to be short. I loved this book. The writing style is beautiful and the story so raw. 

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this. The Catholic school experience was spot on. The strict religious family, also spot on. The MC’s experiences of being Latinx in a predominantly white environment made me think. And I just loved the MC

It’s hard for me to get into novellas!
