"This story will resonate with readers who struggle with social pressure to be thin." —THE U.S. REVIEW OF BOOKS

Sabrina Hunter believes the way to happiness is being thin.

Which makes it tough for a girl like her, who can eat her body weight in tater tots.

The publisher of her first novel has just turned Sabrina’s life-long dream into a nightmare by deciding to market her as their “glamorous author of glamorous books,” relying on an old photo she put on her website two years ago. Sabrina is terrified they will cancel her contract when they discover she has rejoined the ranks of the chubby. She has to get down to a size 4 again, and with the book’s launch only a few months off, she will have to do it fast.

When Sabrina joins a support group for compulsive overeaters, she expects to lose those extra pounds. She doesn’t foresee what she will gain: friendship, love, new interests, and the surprising knowledge that you don’t have to be thin to find serenity.
