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.
