sleepgoblin 's review for:

My Very '90s Romance by Jenny Colgan
2.0

There were aspects of this book that I really liked. But it was brought down a lot by a very flawed main character. She makes fun of her friend for possibly being gay while thinking she's not being an ass. She comes across as very fatphobic. In some ways, I think it really illustrates how different acceptable public discourse surrounding inclusion is in the last 20 years.

There's also a lot of weirdness toward the end that really should have had consequences but is just completely bypassed.

Oddly, my favorite relationship is the one she has with the cantankerous other patient in the hospital who claims to be god.
