4.5
What I got was a tough and real journey of a woman struggling with inner and outer pressures to fit into the thin, beautiful mould society has built for us. We got the life of a woman learning that being fat is okay, it isn’t a bad word - and people should never make you feel less than who you are.
This book was hard to read at times, as someone who has struggled with disordered eating for most of my adult years - there were a few chapters that hit a bit to close to home, but were so worth reading.
The murder mystery was a really fun addition, I didn’t see it coming (I also didn’t read the synopsis) - but it was really well written. Especially after the prologue left me feeling confused!
I didn’t find the characters super fleshed out, but I also didn’t mind - I enjoyed their stories and getting to know Daphne on her journey. & <3 Nick.
