Designated ugly fat friend. Bianca is the Duff. Wesley is the cruel, sexually powerful big-man-on-campus who informs Bianca of her Duff status, and symbolizes everything she despises about high school and shallow teen values.
Reminiscent of Big Mouth and Ugly Girl by Joyce Carol Oates, this is a hard hitting YA novel that is often excruciatingly uncomfortable, and yet raw in it's honesty.
For older teens, the message is affirming and one of self-forgiveness and acceptance.
