Puddin': A Heartwarming YA Romance of Unlikely Friendship, Body Positivity, and Texas-Size Girl Power (Dumplin’, 2)

The irresistible companion to the #1 New York Times bestseller Dumplin’, now a Netflix feature film starring Danielle Macdonald and Jennifer Aniston, and a soundtrack by Dolly Parton! Millie Michalchuk has gone to fat camp every year since she was a little girl. Not this year. This year she has new plans to chase her secret dream of being a newscaster―and to kiss the boy she’s crushing on. Callie Reyes is the pretty girl who is next in line for dance team captain and has the popular boyfriend. But when it comes to other girls, she’s more frenemy than friend. When circumstances bring the girls together over the course of a semester, they surprise everyone (especially themselves) by realizing that they might have more in common than they ever imagined. A story about unexpected friendship, romance, and Texas-size girl power, this is another winner from Julie Murphy. One is a quiet dreamer, the other a dance team queen. When their paths collide in the most unexpected way, they’ll have to rely on each other to survive the semester. Frenemies to Friends: Millie is an optimist determined to make it work. Callie would rather be anywhere else. A punishment forces them together, but what comes next surprises them both. Body Positivity: After years of fat camp, Millie is done trying to change her body and ready to chase her dreams—just as she is. Dual POV: Told from the perspectives of both Millie and Callie, this YA contemporary novel gives you both sides of this unforgettable friendship. Coming of Age in a Small Town: Set in the heart of Texas, it’s a story about finding yourself, finding your voice, and finding the friends who feel like home.
