Fattily Ever After: A Black Fat Girl's Guide to Living Life Unapologetically by Stephanie Yeboah
readingwithlibby's review against another edition
4.0
I really enjoyed this book!! As a fat, mixed woman I found that I could relate a lot to what was said. I do however acknowledge that I’m white passing and so there were also aspects that I couldn’t relate to, but they were teaching moments, educating me on what it’s like to exist and grow up in a western society as a black, fat woman. The book is absolutely beautifully presented and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone!!

TW: fatphobia, bullying, racism, misogynior, physical and emotional abuse, harrassment, denial of medical care
A brilliant book that everyone should be reading. Fatphobia, internalised self hate, racism, it covers so much - but celebrates too. Us white folk can learn a lot (and not appropriate)!
