"If the Shoe Fits encompasses everything I love about rom-coms. I laughed, I swooned, I smiled. Another hit for Julie Murphy!" (Colleen Hoover, number one New York Times best-selling author of Hopeless)
If the shoe doesn’t fit, maybe it’s time to design your own.
Cindy loves shoes. A well-placed bow or a chic stacked heel is her form of self-expression. As a fashion-obsessed plus-size woman, she can never find designer clothes that work on her body, but a special pair of shoes always fits just right.
With a shiny new design degree but no job in sight, Cindy moves back in with her stepmother, Erica Tremaine, the executive producer of the world’s biggest dating reality show. When a contestant on Before Midnight bows out at the last minute, Cindy is thrust into the spotlight. Showcasing her killer shoe collection on network TV seems like a great way to jump-start her career. And, while she’s at it, why not go on a few lavish dates with an eligible suitor?
But being the first and only fat contestant on Before Midnight turns her into a viral sensation - and a body-positivity icon - overnight. Even harder to believe? She can actually see herself falling for this Prince Charming. To make it to the end, despite the fans, the haters, and a house full of fellow contestants she’s not sure she can trust, Cindy will have to take a leap of faith and hope her heels - and her heart - don’t break in the process.
Best-selling author Julie Murphy’s reimagining of a beloved fairy tale is an enchanting story of self-love and believing in the happy ending each and every one of us deserves.

The Bachelor/Bachelorette is my guilty pleasure, and this Bachelor-esque reality show plot point was definitely dramatic and almost as crazy as the real deal. So of course when I heard that this book was coming out, it had to go on my most anticipated list for 2021. This was everything I wanted it to be and more! It is funny, a modern take on a classic tale, and feminist. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also appreciated that the "evil" stepmom & stepsisters weren't evil at all. They were loving and supportive, even if their relationships with Cindy were complicated.
Sweet and Fun Plus-Sized Read

I found the plot fun and entertaining. Also, a plus size main female character who is confident in her appearance? Yes please! I also appreciate that the male lead took interest in her right away, rather than the tired trope of "her needing to change herself to get the guy" or "him finally seeing she's more than just the fat girl". Gag. Henry likes Cindy BECAUSE of who she WAS and not "in spite" of her size. It was refreshing.
Another thing I enjoyed was the portrayal of the step family. Sure, this is a Cinderella-esqe story, but at the same time, it wasn't. There was no stereotypical masquerade ball where the male lead has no idea who she is and no evil step family who try to prevent Cinderella's happily ever after. I actually really enjoyed that the step mother and sisters weren't the nasty antagonists that they usually protray. Instead, they were humans doing they best they could to be a good family for eachother and do the best they could with the cards they were dealt.
All in all, I loved this book and will definitely have to revisit it again.
Cute!
