Oh my god was this book surprisingly emotional! I really enjoyed reading on Savvy’s journey to self love and confidence. Everyone in her life (outside of Jason but he is a mere footnote) was so supportive of Savvy and never let her bring herself down, that shit was the best aspect of this book! Joanie and Maggie supported her and participated with her when she needed that boost reminding her she was perfect as is but also knowing she wanted to do this revenge body journey and thus went along with her, they never let her doubt herself but were also firm when she needed them to be!! 

It wasn’t just Savvy’s friends but the mmc Spencer was just as supportive and enamoured with Savvy. From when we met him her never once made her feel lesser than, for context her trash boyfriend dumped her because she “let herself go” and whilst Savvy was on this revenge body journey Spencer never belittled her for it nor for her body, boy loved her in every way😌

Also whilst the “revenge body” felt a bit ‘umm ok🤨’ at first, it definitely felt like Savvy quickly let go of the need to get back at Jason and actually just enjoyed her herself trying new things and rediscovering her love for Tennis and sport, no extreme methods at all.
