I enjoyed Skinny Me a lot and took the chance to nab another book with the same cast while it was on sale for Mother's Day. I could not finish this book. Tl;dr: The old grown child of adopted parents has a 200 page temper tantrum about her birth mother "throwing her away." Even after it's explained that her birth mother was a teenaged orphan who got pregnant by accident and had to choose between the unwanted kid and college. I feel like people who have been adopted or who have adopted kids would find Tracey's ungrateful and childish attitude about "real family" offensive.
Also it's a big thing in the book that Tracey likely has endometriosis and they spend a lot of time harping about how she's probably infertile as a result. Um, endo doesn't typically cause infertility, it causes you to need medical interventions that can cause infertility if you want to have a decent quality of life. Clearly the author didn't bother to consider that someone who has endo might read the book and call out the bad information.
