medium-paced

2.5

I’m all for mental health discussions/struggles in books but the author’s word choices surrounding her body issues made me v uncomfortable; I also feel like their backstories came out in big trauma dumps rather than naturally revealing.
The beginning called this book cozy and I definitely do not agree with that. I was stressing from beginning to end.

This is all sort of just thinly veiled allegory for the current american political climate…
I wasn’t gonna read the second one and I haven’t decided if I am, but the (very predictable) ending stressed me out so fuckin much I might need to

FMC has low self esteem connected to her weight and body image and suffers from binge eating. Internal thoughts concerning this are prevalent. Active body shaming throughout this book from her parents and others. Proceed with caution if you have body image issues or an eating disorder, this book could trigger you.
