Review: Fat Chances by JS Wilsoncroft

Reviewer: Stacey
Rating: 4 out of 5 Fairies

JS Wilsoncroft's short story, Fat Chances, was uplifting in a strange way, maybe because it was very true to life.

Annie is on the plump side with no confidence and no self-esteem. She has a twin who looks exactly the same from the neck up, but from the neck down its a completely different story. She decides to take a Zumba class where she meets a super hot guy who apparently falls for her, but Annie has a hard time believing him.

Annie has always been picked on for her weight, so has built up a wall to protect herself, will he be the one to break the wall and will Annie allow her wall to crumble to let him in?

A best friend who loves Annie for who she is tells her to believe in him and herself. Will a love she could have be lost? And will she realise in time that big girls are beautiful?

I give this book 4 fairy stars...I must say I was left feeling a bit depressed at the end and wanting more.

ARC Review: The Charmed Fates by Christine Wenrick

Tomorrow is the release day of Christine Wenrick's 'The Charmed Fates', the final installment of her amazing trilogy. We'd like to say a HUGE congratulations to Christine on the amazing success of her fabulous trilogy. Reviewer: Em Rating: 5/5 Wow, oh wow!! This book didn’t disappoint me one iota. I opened to the first page to be induced and transported back into the world of Caleb, Olivia, Jax and Gemma. I started to read and couldn’t put the book down. I wasn’t surprised as I had had the same experience with the first two books, the storyline wrapped around me and enfolded me thoroughly taking me on the journey.
