Review: 
Ashish got dumped and now he's in a funk. So, he asks his parents to set him up with a girl they think he would be compatible with. See, ever since the break-up, his game has been off and he needs it back since he's one of the star basketball players. He wants his mojo back dammit!
Sweetie is a track star, a good student, and is not so bad at carrying a tune. She also happens to be on the plus size. Guys have not been interested in her.
I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked this! Yes it's on the angsty side. And shockingly, I think most of that was from Ashish. Sweetie was the bomb. There wasn't anything I didn't like about her. She really grew throughout the book; expressing her opinions and recognizing her worth. Her relationship with her mom sucked. Imagine constantly being criticized because of your weight. Nothing else matters, but what the number on the scale is and what other people think. There are things that happen as the book progresses, and by the end? Her mom has a change in attitude.
I loved this quote: "She was power. She was grace. She was beauty. She was totally kicking his ass."
