Not really my cup of tea. There were some really triggering things regarding diets and weight loss, in my opinion. No one should have to earn their next meal… and the whole idea of a revenge body felt squicky. Thankfully it morphed from that a little, but still.
There was very little comedy outside of Savvy’s friends being hilarious. There wasn’t all that much romance. But there WAS a lot of tennis (so much tennis practice explanations and recaps and details), cooking, and overworking at a job that she didn’t even really like.

It was an enjoyable read, it felt like a cozy rerun movie that you watch after a long weekend. It reminded me of just wright with queen latifah and I really loved it. I would have liked less chapters of office work, I found that really boring especially because it’s repetitive paperwork and meetings and stuff. I liked the chapters with the tennis and cooking more than the office work. I thought the little conflict with spencer was a little stupid but it didn’t last too long so I guess it was ok. Jason got on my nerves and I’m glad the author didn’t try to give him another chance to even have a conversation with. Overall it was a nice read if you want a quick and easy cozy rom com.

I really enjoyed this. I was dubious after reading a few reviews here about potential triggers and the focus on weight etc but as a plus size person, I resonated with everything Savvy felt. I particularly enjoyed how descriptive the cooking parts were - the author definitely has a way with words that made me actually visualise what she was cooking!
Enjoyed the storyline and really enjoyed the friendships of the girls in the book!

This was refreshing. Taj McCoy tells a story about a woman who is blindsided my a selfish significant other and the choices she makes based on her knee jerk reaction to her pain. Savvy is surrounded by friends and family who love and support her. She’ll need that and more to come to the realization that peace is priceless.
