Dumplin' by Julie Murphy Reviewed by Willow T


In the town of Clover City, there lives a 16-year-old girl named Willowdean. Will wants to prove that she is more than just the fat daughter of the Miss Teen Bluebonnet winner of 1991, so she enters the pageant herself, hoping to gain a little more respect and to show her town that she deserves to be up there as much as all of the other delicate and charming girls.

 With lots of boy drama and friendships along the way, this book will leave you satisfied, curious, and asking yourself many questions at the end of each chapter.

I would give this book 4/5 stars because the plot was amazing and very well written!  My only con would be that it took a very long time to get into the story. It was very capturing although it did take about 1/3 of the book to get into the main event. I would give this book the pillar of courage. With every twist and turn, Will was able to be herself and stand up for herself. She showed great character development throughout the story.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes books about high school dramas, friendship, and humor. 

I am very excited to read the sequel to this book, Puddin!
