I'm not sure why this book has so many positive reviews. On the plus side there were some funny moments mostly with Ben, the main character's brother, but that's about it.

Noah was ok, but Grace was annoying. The main focus of the book seemed to be her weight. It was mentioned over and over and over. She's heavy, I get it, you don't need to beat me over the head with it. It was hard to find her appealing since all you really hear about her is that she is heavy, and she's usually not described in a complimentary way even when Noah describes her. For example, in one scene he thinks of her as a "chunky necklace hanging around his neck." I'm not saying her weight is a problem for me in fact I like it when characters are more realistic, it's just that the author feels the need to mention it at least once every page.

Did I mention she's overweight?
