a cute fun romance that treats its fat girl lead with the same love and respect any romance heroine deserves. i laughed, i cried, i texted my best friend, i threatened to quit the book in the last bit because i was SO upset but the author brought it back home with a lovely ending. anyone who likes reality tv, hopeless romantics, and fat girls falling in love - please read this book!

Content Warnings

Graphic: Body shaming and Bullying

Moderate: Fatphobia, Emotional abuse, Toxic relationship, and Sexual content

Minor: Eating disorder and Rape

the main character is a fat woman on tv/the internet. think of all the stuff people say on the internet to women. think of all the stuff people say to fat people. that's in the book, in a steady but mild form. i only had to skip a few sections, but not all characters treat our hero like a person. none of these warnings took away from the story for me - i would say it was 90% needed for the story.
