funny hopeful lighthearted fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

2.0

Would’ve been 3.5 but the author acknowledges at the end that she isn’t plus-size herself, and it’s really uncomfortable when people tell stories that aren’t theirs to tell. 

Otherwise cute, very body positive, queer representation, a little family growth. I’m a sucker for the “falling for the celebrity” trope. This would've been life-changing to read in middle school, but again, non-fat people shouldn't tell fat stories.
