Reviewing this book is a little on the hard side because 1. I wasn’t in a reading mood when I started this 2. I don’t think I should’ve read it as an audiobook. The storyline itself was cute and clever; I learned a lot about love from the perspective of a fat woman and I think we definitely need more of that in  (romance) novels. That being said this felt less like a romance and more like a fiction. I’m not sure if it’s advertised as a romance or not but that’s what I thought it was when I started it. Though the end is HEA I felt like we didn’t get to see that love properly since B is in a Bachelorette setting. It was fine learning about all the guys and seeing what they each had to offer her and how she perceived herself through their eyes, but I wish there were more scenes between REDACTED and her. I feel like their love was there but just not as developed as it could have been. That being said, if I was in a reading mood, I may have been more inclined to give it a four. The only reason I’m not is because the romance was a little lacking for me but I loved the fat feminism,
