Story4.5 out of 5 stars 422
Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Not the romance novel I expected
Reviewed: 02-23-24
This book was not what I expected but very much what I needed. I think as women, this book is exactly what we all need. It wasn’t the escape from reality that most romance novels are and in the first parts of the book, I felt almost disappointed by that. But as Venus started discovering who she was, I began to realize this book was far more relatable to us 30-some-year-old women than I had ever expected it would be. There were definitely some dry bits, but they were necessary and by the end, I felt more refreshed than I had from any other book. Definitely worth the read! And the performance was amazing.

Overall good read
Reviewed: 02-17-24
The story itself was actually really good! I think for me, the dialogue at points came off a bit corny. I would definitely recommend the read though. Amy Lea did a great job having a focus on the main characters weight without it coming across as her only personality trait. Overall a really nice read!
