Set on You by Amy Lea
5.0

This book was amazing. As a mid-size reader, I want more plus size books! Give me plus size MC's, plus size LI's, the lot! I also loved that the MC in this was into fitness, but not as a weight-loss tool. I think this is a book that will resonate with so many readers, in a way both personal and profound. I loved its commentary on the self-love movement, and it's an acknowledgement of self-respect, rather than trying to focus continuously on self-love - which is exhausting. Whilst reading this I was in a slump of really being annoyed at myself and my body and my weight, and this book helped me personally overcome that - which you can't say about a lot of romcoms! The writing itself is wonderful, well structured and un-put-downable. The characters are realistic, and funny, and I loved them all - even the glaring old lady.
