Shay is a young teen who doesn't quite fit the mold of the "pretty princess" teens that walk the halls of her high school. She loves bacon, hates her stepmom, and misses her father who recently passed away terribly. Armed with her two best friends- one who is dying from a serious disease and the other, a gay teen who is struggling with his own identity... Shay starts an online romance with an unknown boy her age. The two teens start to fall for one another via text and email, but soon Godot
( his screen name) longs to hold her in his arms and meet her in person. Shay struggles with this as she fears him not accepting her size and knows that her enemies at school will sabotage their love. Will she find the strength to go after the love she deserves and wants? Full of lyrical prose and promise this teen book is one you won't want to put down. A must read for all those teens who don't quite fit the mold and the lovers who love them!
