Queer Body Power: Finding Your Body Positivity
by Essie Dennis
*I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review*
In this novel Essie does a really good job at discussing topics that aren’t usually touched upon and those are how your gender and sexuality as well as disability can impact on things such as your self-esteem and body confidence. They do this by discussing eating disorders, fat phobia, fashion and social media. She focuses on the view point of those who aren’t cos, straight and able bodied which is something that you don’t see often. She does through discussing her own experiences but also those of many others in the community and I feel that this is a book all queer people and especially the younger generation can really benefit from.
I gave this 4 out of 5 stars.
