A bit of mixed feelings on this one
This was an interesting one, and I'm struggling to rate a little bit. I'm not super into reality TV and maybe having more context for the shows would've helped me as a reader, I'm not sure. I loved that we had a body-positive, fat woman looking for love, and saying "yes, I deserve love as much as everyone else" and being someone that others who look similar can see getting love. The friends and family were great, and the prose fun. That said, I had second hand embarrassment and bad feelings for so much of the dating portion because of how the some of the men treated her, I understood her hesitance to giving them a serious chance when there was no real reason to trust their motives. I didn't like how the romance played out and how key players acted at the end, but maybe that's just the drama of this type of show. I was rooting for her, but never for the romance, so I just was meh about the ending.
