Excellent holiday read
Do you like sitting on the beach or on the sun lounger with a good book? After a nap, naturally! Do you like a little off-beat rom-com? More JoJo than Jane? More slow burn than first night sex? Then Fat, Ugly, Stupid is the book for you. Follow the lives of Laura and Steve from the 1970’s aged 15 through the decades until they reach 55. Experience nostalgia for the 1980’s and 90’s as we catch up with their lives until they finally meet again in the most unexpected way.
What is Fat Ugly Stupid?
Fat Ugly Stupid is a light hearted read about a teenage romance that spans the decades. Written from the perspective of both Laura and Steve, we follow how their lives worked out after leaving school, making their way in the world and occasionally entering each other’s social spheres. The decades change them and their perspective of life and love.
Why should you read the book?
The story is a nostalgia trip through the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. References to fashion and music evoke our own memories whilst Laura and Steve navigate their way through the decades. It is light-hearted and fun and sometime emotional; just what you want from a good book.
Who would enjoy the book?
Hopefully everyone! But women of a certain age will particularly enjoy the nostalgia trip. Give it a try? It’s an easy read. The worst that can happen is it ends up in a charity shop! If you do happen to like it, drop me a line and let me know. I would love to hear from you.
