Looooooved this book! Loved the representation, loved the writing style, loved the plot. When I wasn't reading this book I was definitely thinking about it. The discussions on fatness and gender are something I have been ruminating on for a while and it was great to see them on the page. I did think the ending was rushed and felt like a bit of a cop out but overall I really really enjoyed this book!!
