Her crash diets weren't sustainable, so they always did just that: crashed and burned.<br /><br />Her narrative voice was great, I agree. I'm really not sure why I didn't quite fall wholly in love with the book on an emotional level, but it was still a great book.<br /><br />No problem, girl!

...(psst, you should read Fat Cat by Robin Brande.)<br /><br />I originally skipped over this, because I misinterpreted what the cover was trying to show. But I'm definitely much more interested in this now that you and Christina have reviewed it. The focus on family and self-worth sounds exactly like what I want in a book, and the lowkey romance sounds more my speed than a bunch of swoons and stuff, which only work for me on occasion. <br /><br />I must make a point of getting this sometime!Renae @ Respiring Thoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01269581772628307546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-7323425454691211372013-07-15T14:56:01.512-04:002013-07-15T14:56:01.512-04:00I was curious about this one before.

I'm so glad it's promote-y rather than preachy. Sounds like it was handled well with an awesome mc so I can't wait to read it!

It sounded so good but I was afraid of it at the same time because I always get frustrated with the parents in contemporary YA and it ruins books for me. Your review makes it sound like something I'd definitely enjoy and be able to relate to though so I'll have to pick it up. Ann just sounds like someone I'd want to be friends with.Disquietushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15658895078630107743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-25592345611043361932013-07-14T13:10:05.295-04:002013-07-14T13:10:05.295-04:00I saw this on Goodreads one day and just knew I ha...I saw this on Goodreads one day and just knew I had to read it. Now after reading your review I want to read it even more! I would really like to read a book that does such a good job with a tricky subject matter. I wonder why there are not more books out there that deal with obesity? Hmmm....Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03788568691345783808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-61365156383852014452013-07-14T12:30:59.279-04:002013-07-14T12:30:59.279-04:00This book sounds amazing!

Once it happened in Forever 21 and my bestie and one of the girls working there had to rip the dress off of me. That was fun...Bystanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12600291606916740623noreply@blogger.com
