Book Review - The Next Big Thing
Another Chick Lit, this one by Johanna Edwards.
This was a pretty good book. The heroine, a size 18 woman, goes on a reality show called From Fat to Fabulous. In addition to the drama of being on the show, she has to deal with her internet/phone relationship with a guy in England who thinks she's a size 4.
The stuff from being on the show seems pretty accurate based on my brief forays into reality TV viewing and her description of life as a 'fat' girl is dead on. A couple of things she talks about are shopping at Lane Bryant and how big women don't order heavy meals in restaurants because the server will judge them.
Great summer beach book.
