Easy to read palate cleanser. The book had a few steamy scenes but I found the humor in the book more entertaining. However, the plot was too neat and felt like it was wrapped up in a bow. The writer made it very evident and kept repeating how the MMC was okay with being fat, and how she only had low self esteem because she wanted to hide who she was from the world. And that's a great message but the author just beats the reader in the head with it over and over. And it seemed unrealistic how everything just worked out for Everly all the time.
