This book was straight up amazing!! This was my first time reading Kristan Higgins but I can assure you it will not be the last. I loved every sentence; I literally laughed out loud, and you can bet your bottom dollar I also cried...a lot. But it was so, so wonderful and I highly recommend it, especially to anyone who has ever been a little uncomfortable in their skin.

Good Luck With That follows Marley and Georgia - and partly Emerson, as they grow up, become adults, and struggle with life, and their weigh - after meeting at fat-camp the summer they turned 18.
There is so much heartache in this novel, and so many insecurities I could completely relate to.
Full review to come.

I liked it... parts of it were painful to read, but I liked it. I think a lot of women deal with weight and body image issues and that seemed realistic to me. I really can't put down a Kristan Higgins book once I get started on one. I liked Marley and Georgia and appreciated their struggles and was glad to see them come to terms with their issues. I can't really love the tony small town in Westchester setting; I don't like shiny little small towns. So I liked the people and not the place, I guess.
