To Be Honest

"To Be Honest is not only a super sweet book, but it’s also a refreshing take on the plus-size protagonist trope. Savannah “Savvy” Alverson is chubby, book smart and has a tendency toward panic attacks. Similarly awkward George is the new guy at school who needs Savannah to tutor him. They fall for each other, adorably. Complications arise when Savvy’s mother’s reality show decides to revisit the family and life becomes even messier, but Savvy’s strength and positive self-image win the day. I only wish the world had more charming, feel-good books like this!"
