“You Just Need to Lose Weight”: And 19 Other Myths About Fat People by Aubrey Gordon

4.0

The work of this book is incredibly important. It pointed out the ways that we can do better as allies and for the first time in my life made me realize how systemic this issue has been all along. Not five stars just because it falls into the trap that a lot of nonfiction does of repeating itself constantly. Then again at the beginning she tells you that the book doesn’t have to be read cover to cover and can be pulled apart. So this isn’t the most valid complaint in the world!
