On the Plus Side: A Novel | Jenny L. Howe

2 posts | 2 read

What Not to Wear and Queer Eye meet All the Feels in this sparkling romantic comedy by Jenny L. Howe, in which the new guest on a popular plus-size makeover show has her style—and her love life—transformed. Everly Winters is perfectly happy to navigate life like a good neutral paint color: appreciated but unnoticed. That’s why she’s still a receptionist instead of exploring a career in art, why she lurks but never posts on the forums for her favorite makeover show, On the Plus Side, and why she’s crushing so hard on her forever-unattainable co-worker. When no one notices you, they can’t reject you or insist you’re too much. This plan is working perfectly until someone secretly nominates Everly for the next season of On the Plus Side. Overwhelmed by the show’s extremely extroverted hosts and how much time she’ll have to spend on screen, she finds comfort in a surprising friendship with the grumpy but kind cameraman, Logan. Soon Everly realizes that he’s someone she doesn’t mind being noticed by. In fact, she might even like it. But when their growing connection is caught on camera, it sends the show’s ratings into a frenzy. Learning to embrace all of herself on national TV is hard enough; can Everly risk heartbreak with the whole world watching?

On the Plus Side: A Novel | Jenny L. Howe

pick

Low pick, though I can‘t quite figure what was missing. Good main characters, supporting characters, believable conflict, and lots of lovely body positivity throughout. Something just feels a little off about it all.

Everly ends up on a makeover show for plus-size people, and it forces her out of hiding in her professional life. She pursues dormant interests and lets herself be herself again, and finds love on the far side of the camera.

Ever feel like your library #bookhaul isā€¦a littleā€¦eclectic? Tagged was an impulse grab from the new release shelf, though I had already stacked it at some point. Hubby requested the Western movie. My dad recommended the Cheney (he‘s decidedly conservative and I am NOT), but I expected a wait so now I have to move it up the list.
