The first 200 pages are just build up and although it has a okay ending I had trouble soldiering through this book, I don’t suggest this book, especially for people who don’t enjoy reading or prefer only to read interesting books with lots of thing happening. I also think it was really weird when Libby kept saying stuff about Pauline potter having marathon s e x and losing 98 pounds. She basically walks around the school and says “I wonder who will make me lose 98 pounds” Another thing is that I just felt like Libby’s weight was brought up like a hundred times and after a little it gets annoying but I understand that she’s insecure but it just sort of annoyed me. Anyways that’s just my opinion.

There was a lot of talk about how she received hate mail with death threats, then there’s a part about fat girl rodeo and also Libby talks a lot about marathon sexkirstenf's review
