Perfect for you if...

  • You want a protagonist who feels real: flawed, funny, and learning to like herself without becoming a different person
  • You enjoy stories about messy families and complicated friendships that feel lived-in rather than manufactured
  • You appreciate humour that comes from genuine observation about body image, dating, and ambition without being preachy

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer plot-driven narratives where things happen to the character rather than the character working through their own head
  • You're looking for a light, breezy beach read rather than something with actual emotional weight beneath the comedy
  • You want a tidy ending where everything gets wrapped up neatly and all problems are solved

About this book

Cannie Shapiro, a twenty-eight-year-old pop culture reporter for The Philadelphia Examiner, has built a life she enjoys with her friends, her rat terrier Nifkin, and a hard-won acceptance of her plus-size body. Her peace is disrupted when she discovers her ex-boyfriend has published an article titled "Loving a Larger Woman" in a national women's magazine. This discovery sets off a transformative year in which Cannie travels from Philadelphia to Hollywood and back, confronting her losses and her past while determining who she is and who she wants to become. The novel follows her journey through grief and self-discovery.
