I am so glad I read this book when I did. I would not have been able to appreciate the nuance and grey morality of the main character had I read it sooner. Such a great book!

This book is everything. If you ever had issues with weight or food, you will just get this novel. The experience the main character goes through is spot on. The author did such a good job going after those uncomfortable and vulnerable moments. Moderate swearing and sexual content.
