What I liked:
- Max is a charming character from the beginning 'till the end and you can't help but see the positive impact he has in Neve.
- Neve's innocence was refreshing and enerving at times, but seeing how she managed herself around Max and how she got involved in the whole relationship so fast was quite fun.
- The touch on positive image and positive dieting and exercise and it really should be emphasised that this character goes through many self image problems that overcomes as her family and new partner reassure her that she looks amazing no matter her size or weight.
What I didn't like:
- An obvious one, the length of the book, it was too much, I thought it wasn't going to be over.
- The negativity behind Neve's character, even when she makes a true progress throughout the book, she still likes to keep negative influences in her life that draught bad thoughts to her mind. It has a bad cycle that only Max was able to take her out of.
It was a good book, one I really enjoyed reading but it was too long for me, over 400 pages really threw my game off, and it is one of the main reasons for me not wanting to reread this book. It shares a positive message towards the end, but once again if you find any of the things that are said here triggering, avoid it, in the end you don't need to show anything to anyone and just like Neve, one day you'll learn how to love yourself and your body. For me it's a 3.5 out of 5.
Mayte.
