i know there was a lot of controversy about this book because of a synopsis that went up. i never saw that synopsis, so i don't really know why there was an uproar. my concern about this book was that it was written by a thin woman. and in the past, every "fat" book i've read, written by a thin person has turned out horribly insulting. this, did not. i thought it was handled very well, and i really enjoyed it. (and i'm fat, just fyi) 
 bullet points! 
 Characters: Libby and Jack are not perfect, they are flawed but real. I think they're both just doing the best they can with the cards they've been dealt, and i liked them a lot. 
 Plot: i had never heard of the the illness? syndrome? disorder? (i can't remember what it was called) that Jack has, but i thought it was interesting to learn about. how that works with Libby's issue, was written well, and played out nicely, i thought. 
 Romance: heart eyes 
 Diversity: so much! Jack is half black. several side characters are POC and i remember at least one queer character.
