Sunny Side Up

A July 2025 Reading Is a Lifestyle Subscription Book Pick.

From body acceptance advocate and MEGABABE founder Katie Sturino comes a heartwarming and hilarious debut novel for fans of Emily Henry and Sex and the City.

Sunny Greene is thirty-five, recently divorced, and about to have a meltdown in the Bergdorf Goodman swimsuit department dressing room. But isn’t rock bottom the perfect place to start a climb?

She decides it’s now or never. Sunny has her PR empire, her gorgeous Chelsea apartment, her two dogs, and her loyal best friends. She decides it’s time to love her body and accept herself for who she is, and with this new confidence, her journey begins. Who says a plus-sized divorcee can’t put herself first, feel beautiful, and date up a storm?

Is fate knocking at her door with Dennis, the charming and down-to-earth mailman, or should she be with Ted, the business tycoon who seems ready to make her size-inclusive swimsuit brand a reality? And what should she do about her ex, who shows up unexpectedly, eager to reconnect?

With the same candor and confidence her followers love, Sturino brings us Sunny Greene, a Carrie Bradshaw for the next generation, and her tribute to the trials and triumphs of dating, friendship, and finding yourself.
