This seems to be a book people either love or hate - no doubt depending on how much of themselves they see in the main character. A light read with not much substance (but occasional poignant observations), but still entertaining (especially the end). This book reminds me of Eleanor Oliphant Is Co...
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. My life is about never putting myself into that situation. I never call attention to myself. That is the code I live by. At twenty-seven Maggie is still workin...
Reviewed for Wit and Sin Conversations with the Fat Girl is one of the most emotionally honest books I’ve read in a long time. Liza Palmer does a fantastic job of conveying body image issues, childhood friendships, and confidence in an organic, relatable way. There are parts of this story that are...
Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. Oof. I don't know what to say. I think this book was supposed to be about the death or journalism and impostor syndrome. However, it jumped all around and I maybe went am I supposed to care about this or no...

Who hasn't been unhappy with their appearance or their current place in life? And who hadn't had someone who was once a best friend that you can feel y...
Parts of it I loved--the talk of reading what you love without being ashamed no matter what it is and how the main character admits to reading for how people will judge her and it's coolness factor. I loved the women empowerment message and the bonding between Anna & Sasha. But there were some plot ...

I have loved previous Liza Palmer books, seriously go out and read Conversations with the Fat Girl and Seeing Me Naked. Some of her books I could not get into fully, see A Field Guide to Burying Your Parents and others I just didn't care for at all, see More Like Her. I thought that Girl Before a Mi...
