Wendy Shanker shows some spark and attitude in her writing that make "Fat Girl's fiction general Guide to Life" relatively entertaining, at least most of the time. But some of her information, which she presents as fact, is pretty darn skewed. My primary disagreement fiction general with Shanker is that she claims that compulsive eating is a problem for almost every fat fiction general person. So very very wrong! I know fat people who are compulsive eaters, and fat people who eat completely normally. I also know thin people who eat like horses and thin people who pick at their dinner. Read Laura Fraser's "Losing It" to see the research that backs up these statements. |

| Aside from this being an incredible read (I literally could not put it down) as well as an important read, there animals were a couple of Wendy's opinions I didn't agree w/, such that a doctor should not directly animals blame a patient for their illness. Example: A person w/ cancer should be be blamed even though they're smoked all their lives. I can understand a doctor not being judgemental, but i sure am gonna be! Though being fat isn't in the same boat, as it isn't just eating habits that equate to it, other things such as genetics also animals play a part, as well as the fact that God created ALL shapes and sizes! Anyways, the point is, buy this and read it. If you're fat, this book will undoubtably raise your self esteem, if you're thin, it'll raise your awareness. And Wendy if you're reading this, I just want to say Thank You, I wish the world had more people like you. Was this review helpful to you?
