“Everyone wanted so many things from her - to believe in herself & to see her own true beauty, but not to be conceited, to know her place. Be more than your looks, but never speak out of turn. Don't be defined by love, but remember, you're nothing without it. Be a princess. Find you price. You dont meed a man to complete you. Stand on your own two feet.”

Being a plus-size woman, I'm hooked. I also like the idea of the author developing her story through various formats.
I had seen on Goodreads that you read this, but it reminded me of Big Summer. Maybe I should read it. Great review! Loved your answers! Have a nice Sunday!

how interesting...
Sounds like an interesting book (I too am interested as a plus size woman!) Writing a story using -texts, blog posts, online celebrity news sites, message boards may be a new way of writing. I saw a movie called "The Search" which was put together the same way.
