Review - Savvy Sheldon Feels Good as Hell.

Review and Giveaway - The Love of My Life.Review & Giveaway - How To Be A Wallflower.Readers should be aware, however, that the process takes most of the book and there are diet, workout, and self-blaming issues that occur along the way. More importantly, she learned to like herself, to value herself for the person she was rather than trying to turn herself into the person her selfish ex wanted her to be. It may have started that way in Savvy's mind but it turned out to be much more complex. I was a little put off by that journey in the first chapters of the book, thinking this might be a 'I'll get skinny and my ex will come crawling back' story. I loved that he noticed her and was intrigued by her long before she began her 'self improvement' journey. Her new love interest, and his dog, both captured my heart. Gaining the strength to put him firmly in her past was a slow - and realistic - process. My heart ached each time Savvy encountered her ex with another woman and took two steps back in her self-confidence. Worst of all, Savvy can’t seem to go anywhere without tripping over her ex and his latest 'upgrade.' Savvy begins to realize that maybe she should’ve started her renovations the other way around: beginning with how she sees herself before building a love that lasts. Then it turns out that the contractor she hires is the same sexy stranger she unintentionally offended by judging based on appearances. But as any home-reno-show junkie can tell you, something always falls apart during renovations. The only thing that doesn’t seem to require effort is her ride-or-die squad of friends. Starting from the outside in, Savvy tackles her crumbling kitchen, her relationship with her body, her work–life balance (or lack thereof) and, last but not least, her love life. But when Savvy’s world starts to crash down around her, she knows it’s time for some renovations. Savvy Sheldon spends a lot of time tiptoeing around the cracks in her life: her high-stress and low-thanks job, her clueless boyfriend and the falling-apart kitchen she inherited from her beloved grandma-who taught her how to cook and how to love people by feeding them.
