Conversations With The Fat Girl

Everyone seems to be getting on with their lives except Maggie. At 27, she's still working at the local coffee house, while her friends are getting married, having babies, and building careers. Even Olivia, Maggie's best friend from childhood, is getting married to her doctor boyfriend. Maggie lives with her dog Solo and has no romantic prospects, save for the torch she carries for Domenic, the busboy. Though Maggie and Olivia have been best friends since their childhood years, Olivia has since gone the gastric-bypass surgery route, in hopes of obtaining the elusive size two, the holy grail for fat girls everywhere. Olivia is now thin, blonde, and betrothed, and Maggie is the fat bridesmaid. In this inspiring debut novel, Maggie speaks to women everywhere who wish for just once that they could forget about their weight.
