challenging informative slow-paced
I found the book really dry and was dragging myself through on the sheer personality of the author. Unfortunately, said author has a fixation with her weight and this got Really ramped up towards the end to the point where I found myself really uncomfortable having her bring up how much she doesn't want to be fat again and again. To the point where she acknowledges it, largely dismisses it and those that might oppose it, then includes a throwaway line about how it might actually reflect some unacknowledge fatphobia- she doesn't use the word fatphobia ofc. I'm deeply disappointed in the book because it was so soured by this, and wouldn't in good faith recommend it to anyone unfortunately
