I thought the book started out strong but by the end things seemed to fizzle out. I wasn’t a fan of the cheating either.

What I loved....
focusing on the weight aspect and that you do not have to be a size 8 to find love.
And the women's rights aspect.

What I didnt love....
A very long listen, for them to still not fully end up together

I did have to increase the speed of my libby to 1.55 just to get the female narrator to spead the heak up
