Synopsis
My body suuuucks. After lounging around on my butt all summer (okay, so maybe that was my bad), this body decided to become something completely foreign. So now I’m trying to make the track team and I feel like I’m a baby learning to walk again.
A couple pounds wouldn’t have been so bad. Work those off, run like a mad woman, no problem, yeah? But no. I’ve also developed a couple of things that I definitely didn’t have before. And now my guy friends are all sitting in a pool of drool as they not-so-subtly stare at my chest.
Combine all that drama with the fact that the new track coach is getting major flack for being a little chunky, and all I’m trying to do is convince the team that I’m not running slower because of her coaching style.
Oh, and did I mention that I’m totally falling face-first in “like” with some guy I met in a cemetery? And no one understands it just because he’s also a little chunky. But he’s also adorable and wonderfully weird and I don’t care what they say, his look sure does it for me.
But… I don’t know… how can I be in “like” with someone, when I have no clue how to like myself anymore?

My Review
You Can't Catch Me by Cassie MaeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
5 Platypires for You Can't Catch Me by Cassie Mae
"And your handwriting is incredibly… non-loopy.”“Non-loopy?” “It was my substitute for saying it’s not very—”“Girly?”“Yes.” He laughs, and that adorable as all heck blush goes through his ears. “It’s like Lucida Sans when most girls have Lucida Handwriting.”"
I swear I think Cassie Mae can read my mind or she maybe can time travel. Cause I feel like she knows what I went though my teen years. Seriously, she writes characters that are so relatable and realistic that you'll feel like someone is holding mirror to your very own life.
You can't Catch me is story about a girl who develops but mother nature decided to give her a lil more extra on top. Add a love story, teen angst, funny moments and you get a great read.
I also thought this was a very inspiring read about body image and highly recommend it for others to read.
