verdammt, das Buch hat mich mitgenommen. Ich war richtig drin, ich hab's in einem Rutsch gelesen, ich war wütend. Beide Erzählerinnenstimmen (einmal aus kindlicher Perspektive, einmal aus der Erwachsenen mit Kommentaren zu feministischer/politischer Einordnung) waren super. Ich will dieses Buch am liebsten allen empfehlen. Und selbst wieder lesen"

Der Schreibstil war ganz gut (ich habe das Audiobook gehört), und ich glaube ich verstehe auch, was das Buch aufzeigen/mitteilen möchte. Aber das Einzige was bei mir hängen geblieben ist, ist die fatphobic Einstellung des Vaters und seine ganzen triggernden Aussagen.
