A review by colleen_m
Weight For Love by Jason Collins
2.0
Mark has to return home for the first time since he left for college. He is NOT looking forward to it - mostly because he feels like the same overweight nerd that got picked on in high school. Of course he has to run into his hot jock crush from back then first thing. Of course that guy is the contractor working on his grandmother's house. What Mark doesn't expect is for Carter to flirt with him. Or ask him over for dinner. I mean, it's impossible for someone like Mark to be with someone who looks like Carter... right?
I'm just gonna say it - I was bored with this book. Mark's self-esteem was the only conflict in the book. Everyone else was perfect and nice - and by that I mean dull and uninteresting. You might get into this book if you are looking for something all the way at the end of the fluff spectrum.
"No. There was no way he could look at me the way I looked at him. That would be totally absurd. He was the very definition of masculine beauty, and I was…well, I was just Mark Sullivan. Former chubby high school kid, current chubby adult man." Repeat similar thought at least once every chapter.
