Positively Uplifting

It seems somewhat harsh to bring hate in to a book review, but I’m afraid it has to be done.

I hated finishing this book.

This semi-autobiographical book is so fun and positive that it seems a shame to have to return to the negativity of the real world.

Ellie’s a plus-sized blogger but is feeling like a fraud because her curvy confidence is at an all-time low having just been dumped. Reading some nasty comments on a newspaper website gets her fired up to show the world that you don’t have to be skinny to be happy. She and her friends devise a plan to change the world. Meanwhile, Ellie seeks solace in Jamie, a gorgeous younger man with commitment issues. The campaign sees the girls dealing with PR disasters, the disasters of dating sites, and flash mobs. Is it enough to change the world, and to give Ellie her confidence back?
