that way we can give 2 days to Hooked
and try to finish up our other ones currently going...lol


Well, we can always kick it out another day or two. I own this one :)
that way we don't feel rushed. Keep me posted on how your reads go! :D

too cute!
I'm just starting the 2nd chapter
and the weigh in (view spoiler)
but their middle name exchange (view spoiler)
I love his name!
hers is pretty too! Annabel
oh and her mom (view spoiler)

I love the name Tegan, very unique.
I'm wondering what part Tegan's brother might play in all this.

I just finished chapter 3.
off to cook dinner and then I'll read more :D

This book is so true to an overweight person's thought processes! I've been like Annabel where I'll step on the scale, get off, back on, and accept the lower weight. Lol I KNOW the mind of an overweight person on a diet! Lol
We STILL are having Internet problems! I'm MORE than frustrated! I can't read the spoilers or make them. Grrrr

I agreed! Only boxers needs to weigh :)
Her mother totally irritates me. How can a mother act that way?
Love her father, though.

Curse the Internet problems :(
Anyway, here what Trisha wrote:
I'm just starting the 2nd chapter
and the weigh in [ Ugh! What gym still does that? I had a trainer for almost 2 years and she NEVER weighed me - especially in front of the whole gym. We didn't need the scale to see the difference.... (hide spoiler)]
but their middle name exchange [ is too cute! Edgar! Tegan Edgar.... :D (hide spoiler)]
I love his name!
hers is pretty too! Annabel
oh and her mom [ clearly sucks. Who does digs on their own daughter and their weigh :( (hide spoiler)]

How far should I go today, ladies?
should I go to 10 chapters, stop here??



Hope you enjoy it :)


I just finished chapter 10 and her MOM! Ugh!!!!!! :( I dislike her EVERY chapter!

I am in chapter 8, by the way. I might not be able to read much today. I need to edits for pictures for team challenge.

I dislike Annabel's mother too. She's not supportive and it seems she only cares about appearances and what's on the outside. It's mothers like her who make overweight girls feel unworthy.
I loved the scene where Tegan calls Annabel "kick ass hot" and she can't handle it so halls off and gives h a black eye. He's only pressed but not mad! Lol Does he have the hots for her?
My students will be working on essays for Odyssey today, so I won't get in any reading time till after school around 3:30. You're gonna leave me in the dust! Lol

It is true that Trisha is going to finish first. Again. I am going to be a bit busy too.

it was cute but not my favorite from this author so far.
let me know when you ladies are done
