I liked the writing style, but there was some casual fatphobia that went unaddressed and the author really emphasized how tiny the female MC was in a way that was excessive. And the tone was a little strange; the first half of the book that had the work drama was pretty light, but the end family drama from the male MC's family was a little much.
