The Universe Is Expanding and So Am I by Carolyn Mackler
5.0
5/5 stars
"What happens when your happily ever after turns out to be less than perfect..."
This was an absolutely wonderful sequel and I didn't want it to end. Virginia is extremely relatable in the way that she sees things and the way that she wants to handle things. One can easily see from the story that she is struggling to be able to understand why things are going the way that they are and how she can possibly learn to be comfortable within her own skin. However, as the story is nearing the end, it is easy to see that the reader is going to get the happy ending that they always want in a story.
This is a book that makes me believe that this series should be something that is read by everyone, boy and girl, since it addresses body image issues in such a way that it is very relatable. Carolyn Mackler has delivered the perfect sequel that we often do not get when reading a book that comes out so long after the first one, and she has wrapped it up in a way that will leave the reader feeling comfortable that they got a solid ending to such a beautifully written story.
