Review: Didn't really like the main character

This book was okay, but I would have liked it more had Bev (the main character) been more likeable. I realize that this was supposed to be a humorous book, but Bev's alcoholism and insecurity weren't really humorous. She was so busy worrying about her weight and whether every little thing was a "sign", that I just couldn't like her. And we're halfway through the book before she says one thing about Rob liking her for who she really is, rather than who she pretends to be. She says, "There is only one way to find out," but as far as I could tell, she never did bother to find out. She didn't change any of her behavior, and continued to hide her true self from him.It wasn't horrible, and I don't feel like I wasted my time reading it, I just prefer a more likeable heroine - not perfect, but someone I could stand to be friends with. Also, a little proofreading wouldn't go amiss.
