#BookReview: If the Shoe Fits (Meant To Be #1) by @andimjulie

Synopsis: After having just graduated with a degree in shoe design, and trying to get her feet on the ground, Cindy is working for her stepmother, who happens to be the executive producer of America's favorite reality show, Before Midnight. When a spot on the show needs filling ASAP, Cindy volunteers, hoping it might help jump-start her fashion career, or at least give her something to do while her peers land jobs in the world of high fashion.

Turns out being the only plus size woman on a reality dating competition makes a splash, and soon Cindy becomes a body positivity icon for women everywhere. What she doesn't expect? That she may just find inspiration-and love-in the process. Ultimately, Cindy learns that if the shoe doesn't fit, maybe it's time to design your own.

My Review: If the shoe is a new series by author Julie Murphy and after loving the Dumplin series I just had to read this one.  And it was a hit!!! I now need a full fledged movie for this one!  This modern day plus-sized Cinderella retelling was perfect for the world of today!! Being plus sized myself this one hit hard.  I loved the story and the characters and it was just so cute that I couldn’t put it down. 

Review

"If The Shoe Fits encompasses everything I love about rom-coms. I laughed, I swooned, I smiled. Another hit for Julie Murphy!"―Colleen Hoover, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Hopeless

"In Murphy's breezy and fun rom-com, there's enough of Cinderella in the story to be charming, yet overall it sparkles like an exciting new tale. indy is immensely lovable, and readers will root for all her dreams to come true. Murphy brings the wit, sensitivity, and imagination that has made her a YA star to the start of her adult romance Meant to Be series.”―Booklist

"If the Shoe Fits is so much more than a modern retelling of a classic tale. It’s a swoon-worthy slow burn romance that’s filled with heart and humor."―Farrah Rochon, USA Today best-selling author of The Boyfriend Project

“[An] inventive Cinderella retelling, Murphy cleverly blends the conventions of fairy tales and reality TV to create an incisive commentary on both…readers interested in a smart exploration of the intersection of romance and reality TV will be overjoyed.”―Publishers Weekly

“Forget the animated Cinderella! If the Shoe Fits brings a fresh, charming, and deeply empowering perspective to the classic fairy tale.”―Katharine McGee, New York Times best-selling author of American Royals
