This is the most personal book review I have ever given. It’s been quite a while since I was a teenager but this book still is triggering in so many ways. The mother’s view on her plus size daughter. The shame of being overweight because of comments by “well meaning” adults that inadvertently cause damages. The fact that the main character wants to be an artist and what people think about those who have these hopes. I hope this book makes young girls realize they are more than their size. I hope adults with plus size daughters realize that sometimes those well meaning comments can cause more harm than good. Bravo to the writer for not shying away and but not being over dramatic at the same time. I can’t wait to hear the entire series.
