A Book In Review.
Brief Summary:
Owning a restaurant is as crazy for Nicky Landry as an alcoholic owning a bar. But despite having to cram herself into a body shaper to look decent in a dress, life is pretty good. She’s throwing the party of the year for her graduating doctor boyfriend, Rob, who she’s sure is going to propose—until his new girlfriend shows up at the party. After ordering Rob to get his stuff out of her house and get lost, Nicky finds him faceup with her expensive Chroma knife sticking right out of his cheating heart. As the prime suspect, Nicky is in hot water. And no matter how hard she tries to clear her name, her problems only mount. She’s convinced she can solve the murder—if only she can figure out the identity of the skinny person seen walking away with Rob after the party. Getting “Skinny” won’t be easy for Nicky, but she never imagined it would be life or death…
Review:
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. ‘Getting Skinny’ is another one of those books, the ones I can’t put down, can’t wait to know what happens, can’t wait to recommend books. You know the type and around here, we call them 5 star books! The story had me from page 1 and it took a lot to put it down. I was “Team Nicky” from the get-go. She was so relatable, I just wanted to share a piece of cake with her or hug her. The story wasn’t your typical mystery, but more of a story of mystery, self acceptance, and friendship. It had me guessing until the very end. I honestly can’t wait til I read this book again, it was that good! And any book that comes with recipes, is a keeper for sure…! I recommend this book to anyone who loves a good mystery, but an even better story. It would make a fab book club read, xo!

Woman Crush Wednesday part 2.
So this #wcw is actually from my first Woman Crush Wednesday, but I just have to give props to my girl, Khloe Kardashian Odom. She LOOKS phenomenal. I have always loved Khloe and her look, but she is going so hard in the gym and working on herself. She is my inspriation everyday when I want an extra treat or when I want to pig out, all I have to do is think “Khloe wouldn’t be eating this” and I move on.
She’s constantly posting pics of her healthy food choices, recipes, and inspiration quotes. It helps me tons to see her so focused and I want to keep on my a-game too. Check out her blog to get her recipes and catch her healthy kick fever! Let me know who’s inspiring you to get fit for the summer and for life in the comments, until tomorrow my beauties, Xo!
