Abby Cooper: Psychic Eye
by Victoria Laurie
I liked this book, to a point. The protagonist is a quirky clairvoyant who can see peoples futures and I have always enjoyed that kind of psychic touch in a novel.
I would have given it a higher rating if it wasn’t for the usual fattist tropes, like her referring to a large woman as round as she is tall, resembling the greedy girl who turned into a blueberry inWilly Wonka. Referring to fat people as waddling away from her. I can sense the fat phobia from 10,000,000,000 miles away, and it quite a turn off.
