Size 12 Is Not Fat – Meg Cabot

Description

Size 12 Is Not Fat by Meg Cabot is a witty and fast-paced mystery novel that marks the first instalment in the Heather Wells series. Blending elements of cosy crime fiction with sharp humour and contemporary romance, this lighthearted yet suspenseful story introduces readers to Heather Wells, a former teen pop star whose career and personal life took a nosedive after she gained weight, lost her record deal, and had her life savings stolen. Now working as an assistant dorm director at a New York college, Heather stumbles upon a sinister mystery when a student’s body is found at the bottom of an elevator shaft.

When the police dismiss the death as a reckless accident, Heather refuses to accept the explanation. Drawing on her keen instincts and knowledge of young women’s behaviour, she begins her own off-the-record investigation. As more suspicious deaths occur, Heather finds herself navigating a world filled with secrets, lies, and danger — all while juggling her quirky job and unresolved feelings for the private investigator who owns the building she lives in.

This engaging mystery is ideal for readers who enjoy lighthearted crime fiction with strong female leads and plenty of humour. Size 12 Is Not Fat is a smart, entertaining read for anyone who loves a cosy whodunit set in the heart of New York City.
