At first I stopped reading the book, because it started slow and then made quite a few fat phobic comments that I did not see the point in. However, the other reviews on here intrigued me to at least continue a little further. After finishing the Story, it is really interestingly written. However still a rather slow development with the fat phobia continuing throughout.

Slow to start but then it galloped along; I think I get what it’s going for and I enjoyed it but I didn’t love it. Maybe because I didn’t feel like there was enough of a point to everything.
