I was drawn to this book by the title alone. I was looking at it saying is that really the name?  Has there ever been a longer name?  I really love that name.After reading it, I have to say, The Big, Not-So-Small, Curvy Girls, BBW Romance, Dating Agency was really fun, and as a *ahem* curvier girl, I was happy to dig into it.You know what I learned from reading this book?While I realize that there are plenty of confident BBWs and there are lots of slender women with self esteem issues, seriously, we are annoying with our lack of confidence.That didn't make the book bad.  It just highlighted the problem for me because I do the exact same thing with my husband, the man who kinda liked me enough to marry and have children with me.I have always had issues with self esteem, skinny and bulimic or curvy and fighting my weight without throwing up my food, it was just really interesting seeing those same words/actions that I have come out of our heroine's mouth.  I'm sitting here going, get over it, you're beautiful, he likes you, obviously, stop putting yourself down already. Now I know why it drives my husband batty.The only thing I don't do is tell him how astonished I am that a man like him would want to be with a girl like me.He's already confident enough.No need to give him a big head. :)Back to the book.I loved it.  My only complain is was over too quickly. (Not meaning it's a short book. I read it in about 1 hour and 40 minutes or so. I wanted more, a bigger HEA. Don't get me wrong, there was a good HEA. I just wanted more and felt it just ended too quickly.That's the sign of a good book.You don't want it to end.But alas, all good things must come to an end and now I want the rest of the series.Thank you to NetGalley for sending me a copy of The Big, Not-So-Small, Curvy Girls, BBW Romance, Dating Agency (Plush Daisies: BBW Romance). That was a cute, fun, fast read that highlighted some things I need to change about my own self.
