Curvy Girls Can't Date Quarterbacks by Kelsie Stelting

2.0

This book was fine. That being said, it was enough to draw me into the series, partly because it was sort of like a car accident, can't look away, kind of thing. The premise holds a lot of promise. The execution could be improved. The storytelling was fine but there were quite a lot of grammar and wording errors (which carries on through the remainder of the series). There's also a lot of inconsistency in the books which drove me INSANE over the course of the series. It wasn't too bad in this book but know, it's a real annoyance in upcoming installments.

Rory and Beckett are both fine MCs. I liked Beckett more than Rory. The overall drama plot of the book was frustrating. The story starts with a bet that Rory can't get the school's football star to take her to homecoming. Over the course of the book the premise of the bet morphs to Rory needing to get Beckett to fall in love with her. Taking her to the dance vs. falling in love with her are wildly different (see, inconsistencies). The original premise of the bet is, in my opinion, pretty tame and the change in bet terms makes it blown out of proportion.

Overall, it's a fine. There's lots of room for improvement but it was a relatively quick read making it bearable.
