On the Plus Side by Jenny L. Howe
3.0
First off, many thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this book as an audio ARC! I greatly appreciate it!
Let me preface this by saying I'm not a romance reader. It sounded cute, though, since I am myself plus-sized and a fan of What Not to Wear! But alas, it turns out I'm just not a romance reader. I spent the whole story waiting for something exciting to happen, but there was nothing that wasn't mundane. A kiss or a makeout or even sex or an "I love you" isn't anything special enough to build a whole story towards. I do believe I'm gonna stick with fantasy and horror officially.
All that said, the story itself is fine, and the characters are likeable enough, so I'm giving On The Plus Side three stars!
