I would have liked this book better if it weren’t set in the UK. It was really obvious to me that the writer was American and trying to write Brits and it really took away from the story for me.

Thoroughly enjoyed! Laughed out loud a lot, and found some passages particularly inspiring. However, had a lot of moments where I felt like I had missed something--I thought it was a standalone, but I'm wondering if it is truly part of a series? And I wish the characters had yelled, shrieked, and bellowed slightly less. It began to feel a bit over the top. Still, very cute and funny read with a plus-size heroine, which was exactly what I was hoping it would be.

This book was incredibly funny and I loved the dynamic of the MCs.
What I don't love is women constantly bodyshaming  and belittling themselves...I really have a limit for how much of that I can take. Except for that, loved the first half but meh to the second half because in my opinion some things that were said were not okay in any way.

This could have easily been a 4+ star book because of the humour and characters but because of the forced drama(lack of communication between best mates who talk about everything, lack of trust, things said that are not really forgivable) I liked it way less.

There were too many side characters to keep up with, but I loved Mac and Freya’s dynamic!

Super cute friends to lovers story. The banter between Freya and Mac is so cute. She is a seamstress and he is a football (soccer) star. They start out as friends, just watching Netflix and hanging out every night. Then she wants to have sex for the first time and he is more than happy to help.
