This book felt so much like it was taken from my life on several of the topics that popped up in it. I was enjoying it so much! I think some of the things that didn't match exactly were only because of circumstance. Some books are just like that I guess.
Moderate: Body shaming, Fatphobia, and Alcohol
This book could have been about my life on so many of the topics covered. I mean do you ever read a book and you are like, wait a minute 3 out of 5 boxes checked. That was this book for me in so many ways. I really liked the book even if it did weird me out a bit.voxelbee's review against another edition

Super cute fun YA romance. Not typically a genre I read much of these days, but I’m glad I read this as part of the Read Harder challenge. There’s a lot of food and body talk but it’s mostly in the form of every other character talking crap about the one who thinks bread is the devil. And lots of cheeseburgers.
