This is 10/10 fat girl rep, I have hardly ever felt as seen as a fat person as I have when reading this book. And I will now immediately go read this author's other books.
It was surprisingly funny! One moment it's creepy as all get out and then I'm laughing at a Supernatural joke. Which is another thing that was surprising, usually I find pop culture references annoying and unnecessary, but that wasn't the case with this book.
The only reason this doesn't get five stars from me is because it kind of dragged a bit at the end, but everything else was fantastic!
Also the title's play on words is hilarious!
