Jemima J by Jane Green
I think this book is legit not very good. But to be fair, I typically have trouble when I seek out fluff to read. Most fluff is just too fluffy for me.
The protagonist is a heavyset adult British woman, who is picked on by skinny co-workers and her mean girl roommates like high school has never ended and she's in the most sadistic John Hughes film ever. She catfishes some guy online who lives in California, then loses a ridiculous amount of weight in a ridiculously short amount of time so she can go visit him. That doesn't work out, because......just Google it. It's too ridiculous. Then, something something, the love of her life was right in front of her the whole time, and coincidentally he's in California too, also he's famous now! But she still had to lose weight (and develop exercise anorexia) for him to express his interest, so I'm not sure what the message was here.
The writing was pretty painful to hack through from the jump, so I skimmed this liberally. I'm sure there is better fluff to be had out there. I'd recommend some, but my list dries up after Bridget Jones and Sookie Stackhouse.
