This book was beautifully done. It was charming, funny, heart warming and devastating.

This was unrealistic and silly and so what?? I still liked it!!! 

Although I’ll say there was a lot of body image issues content that was slightly triggering to me so please proceed with caution on that

There’s a lot of body shame, dysmorphia, and anxiety that I wasn’t prepared for, and sometimes the writing style bothered me, but ultimately I enjoyed the book. There were some laugh out loud moments and it was fun overall.

Wow does this book ever need a trigger warning for eating disorders, disordered eating, body dysmorphia. That is not what I want to read about.

Putting a whole ass anorexia food diary on page and then claiming she cures herself of a horrific eating disorder by ~vibes~ (eating a *gallon* of ice cream????). Fuck all the way off, straight to jail, not in my romance novels thank you very much!!!
