Summer Series: My favourite Plus Size Reads This Summer

In this penultimate episode of our summer series, I’m sharing one of my favourite past times with you; reading. I’ll be sharing not only my passion for reading, but exploring the importance and power of fat representation within the stories I read. I’ll share a few wonderful plus size reads from this summer from cosy romances, to dark paranormal relationships. And because I have so many recommendations, I’m sharing a few more with even more diversity and representation amongst their pages. This is a super cosy episode, so grab a drink and settle in.Chapters00:00 Catch up05:57 The Power of Representation in Literature10:39 Favorite Plus-Size Reads of the Summer19:28 Exploring Mental Health Representation and Polyamorous Relationships in BooksMy book recommendations:PLEASE CHECK CONTENT WARNINGS BEFORE READING.Playing for Keeps by Tristen CroneCash by Mary WarrenCome Out, Come Out by Alexia OnyxLove, Utley by S.J.
