Getting Clean with Stevie Green by Swan Huntley

4.0

I know I don’t read a lot of chick-lit, but I do enjoy the genre from time to time and I was fortunate to have gotten a digital ARC from Netgalley. I loved this book! It was so refreshing and sad and funny and enjoyable to read.

I loved the family dynamics and following Stevie’s journey as she found herself back in her hometown and trying to find her footing.. it kind of reminded me of the main character of Bridesmaids hitting rock bottom and moving in with her mom and trying to find out who she is and what she should be doing.

I didn’t expect the plot to go the direction that it did, but it was a nice surprise and one that was heartfelt especially as we watched Stevie run along her whole like with the fake it til you make it mentality before realizing that it wasn’t working for her and she needed to sit down and stop and be honest with herself. I love that she got to explore a better relationship with her sister, too.

Getting Clean with Stevie Green was a blast to read, even though it was emotional and series, like most chick lit, it still felt light and fun even when you were watching Stevie drown her sorrows. I definitely recommend this one!
