Book review: Tale of a plus-size heroine perfect for the times Richard Klinzman, For the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union USA TODAY NETWORK © Dial Press One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London One to Watch
Dial Press, 432 pages, $17 paperback
Debut novelist Kate Stayman-London has turned in a truly insightful tale perfect for the times. With so much interest shown in the country for dating programs like The Bachelorette and others, Stayman-London posits the question, why are all the women seeking lasting love and commitment, slim, long legged and have to-die-for looks?
Enter Bea Shumacher, a well-known and successful fashion blogger in Los Angeles who is trying to get over the one man she has loved and lost, Ray Morretti. While viewing the successful, but declining in the ratings, show The Main Squeeze, Bea blogs to her fans that for a reality show, why do they never have real women such as herself, a plus-size woman unashamed of her body?
The Bachelor for bookworms
Book Riot, a website for book lovers, releases a Read Harder Challenge every year with 24 reading tasks to tick off throughout the year. To kick off the new year, I decided to check off my first task: read a fat-positive romance.
One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London fits the bill perfectly. In Stayman-London’s debut novel we follow the romantic journey of Bea, a plus-sized fashion blogger living in L.A., as she stars in America’s favourite reality TV show,
Main Squeeze. Bea agrees to star in this
Bachelor-like show in order to boost her career, not to find love, like the show is designed for. But as we know, there wouldn’t be an excellent novel here if the story played out in that fashion. Through juicy plot twists and multimedia coverage, we watch along as Bea experiences love and loss for all of America to see.

If there was any small silver lining to spending all this time indoors in 2020, it had to be the truly ridiculous amount of books consumed. I caught up with royals, visited alternative versions of the past, went to art camp in Brooklyn, and even explored one very creepy haunted house (below).
I loved a ton, but the below 10, in no particular order, really stood out to me as my favorite new books of 2020. For anyone looking to kick off 2021 with a great read, check one of these out. You won t be disappointed.
