4.5 stars

Although this story is told from one piont-of-view only, Simone's, the author managed to bring an entire cast of characters to life.

Was the story perfect? No. Were there things that bothered me? Yes. Could I put the book down? NO! And that's what made it a winner for me.

My biggest critique is the story infers emotional and/or physical abuse triggers obesity. While I'm sure that's true in some circumstances, it's not always the case.

In fairness, the Q&A section states the author made a conscious choice to use emotional eating for this story.

Copy obtained via NetGalley.
