I loved how this was about a fat woman who was not “fat and…”, but just a human being trying to find love (or really, wanting to take a break from finding love!) The dates were a lot of fun, with some really funny weird scenarios and some really sweet ones. I struggled a little with Haleigh and Jack not realizing that they were meant to be - honestly, it annoyed me enough that I was rooting for one of the other dates to win Haleigh and surprise me! - but ultimately they were cute together and seeing the “why” unfold helped them make more sense.

Quick and cute. Interesting premise.

I’m finding the main character quite annoying ngl, and I hate calling a fellow anxious babe annoying but I’m just not enjoying being in her head, and I know it’s the start of the book and she’s probably going to grow but I’m not sticking around to find out. And I’m so sad because I loved on the plus side, and we need more fat rep, but this one isn’t the one for me.

This is a delightful and uplifting read that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt the joy of self-love and acceptance, particularly those in the LGBTQIA+ community and plus-sized women who crave stories that celebrate body positivity and the beauty of embracing one's true self.
