At first the book was hard to get into. The main character, Ace, was so abrasive, and seemed to take offense at everything around her. I got tired of reading her rants. And her anger at her ex seemed misplaced. After awhile, the book started to get more interesting. Ace became more likable as she began helping her friend Chloe out of an abusive marriage. And I really liked the character Mrs. Peacock. The book did wrap up rather neatly.

Mad Fat Girl Series by Stephanie McAfee
Source: Overdrive Audio/Public Library
My Rating: 4/5 stars

The Bottom Line: To date, there are three books (and two novellas!) in Stephanie McAfee’s Mad Fat Girl Series: Diary of a Mad Fat Girl, Happily Ever Madder, and Down and Out in Bugtussle. To be completely honest, I only requested the first book in this series because of the title 😊 I find it hard to resist such fun titles, and what I got behind the title was just as fun! The series revolves around the life, love life, antics, and shenanigans of one Ace Jones. Ace Jones is a spitfire if ever there was one and her mouth and actions often get her into a world of trouble. Ace Jones is fiercely loyal to her friends, hopelessly in love with a man she can’t seem to make a relationship work with, and often up to no good as a result of the very best of intentions. While there are many, many, many tremendously funny moments over the course of the three books, there are also some serious topics such as abuse and bullying addressed. What I found particularly fun about these books are solid characters, both good and bad, who populate the little town of Bugtussle. From Ace and her best friends, to the local barkeep, to the little old ladies who seem to know everything about everyone, there is a character for everyone in this series. Overall, I found the first and third books to be the best (to date) with the middle book being a bit slower, but necessary. By the end of the third book, Ace and her friends have been through the wringer and back again and not even one of them are showing any signs of slowing down!… (altro)
