I actually got into this a lot more than I thought I would. I decided to finally listen to this book, which I'd redeemed for free ages ago as part of Libro.fm's ALC Program, while in Cobble Hill. 

Despite that, I didn't care for the characters at all and nothing really happens. Sometimes nothing really happens in a book but you still feel you took something deeper away from the experience of reading it. With this one, I didn't take anything away from it at all beyond the surface level entertainment I got from peeking into the characters' lives.

Also, lots of fatphobic comments in this one!
