A quick perfect summer read! Started this last night at the campground I am at this weekend and enjoyed listening on my walks for exercise and for lounging at the campsite! Had a twist I wasn’t expecting and I enjoyed it!

Okay this has a lot going on. A rich ex friend. A wedding. A reality show aside. A murder. Influencers. Body positivity. Fake relationships. Fake identities. And more. 

It just had so much going on I was like is this all in one book? It is. It was too much going for me to really feel invested in the story.

Friendships especially between girls and women can be complex. What if one is a rich socialite with the seemingly ideal life and the other is a plus size girl struggling with self confidence? Why would the girl who seems to have the world want to be in the other girl’s place? She had the one thing that rich girl wanted most; her father’s love.
