This book really hit home. It’s not just for teens that have
struggled with their weight, but for anyone who has ever had a problem in life
they felt they had no control over. Ann’s just happens to be her weight. She
thinks that all of her troubles will be solved if she can just lose 45 pounds.
Even with the low self esteem, she’s a very likeable MC, easy to relate to. She’s
also a bit clueless. I love how Ann’s character develops throughout the book,
as she learns more about herself, her friends, and her family. She discovers that
she’s not as alone in her struggles as she thought. A very satisfying read!
45 POUNDS (MORE OR LESS) is now available for preorder and
will be released July 11th.
Great spotlight! Can't wait to read this book :)
