Savvy Sheldon Feels Good as Hell by Taj McCoy

This book was about Savvy discovering that her life isn't as wonderful as she thinks it is. Especially after her long-term boyfriend dumps her in the most shallow and pretentious way ever.
Savvy decides she's going to change her life for the better and discovers, along the way, that even what she wants for herself may not bring her happiness. I loved following Savvy through her fitness journey to just get stronger and have more energy. I adored her boss and how he helps evolve her role to better fit her lifestyle and not force her to change completely for a promotion.
There was also a love story involved but I enjoyed how it wasn't the main focus of the book. The author made a point to display her ride-or-die relationship with her friends over Spencer, the super sexy contractor who Savvy thought was homeless. They mention this multiple times in the book and it kind of irked me a bit. Maybe because I live in a city with a high homeless population and I didn't think it was something to joke about(?). Don't let that deter you from reading this novel though. It's all about a woman doing the most to better herself when her life is falling around her and she kills it. Such a fun read.
