I really liked this book. I thought it was very entertaining and could be read in one sitting. It was filled with cliches and it was extremely predictable, but you kind of know that going into this book. It's nothing life changing but it is entertaining enough that it doesn't make you want to pull y...

When I first heard about Skinny it sounded like it would be a really good story and I'm really happy I chose to pick this book up. Once I picked up this book I couldn't put it down because I was so caught up in Ever's story.Ever is fifteen years old and is overweight. She has tried dieting and exerc...

I started out fascinated by this book. I loved the beginning, and I loved the way Skinny was described in Ever’s head, always mocking her. I was glad to see a main character that actually has to deal with something–authors always shy away from overweight characters, especially main characters. And i...
