'In an over-heated portable in a small country town my friends and I sat, sweating through our 'Impulse' and laughing so hard it hurt. not because our young and already-over-it Year Eight maths teacher, Miss Snaize, was particularly entertaining, but because I'd pulled out my copy of Judy Blume's Forever and I was showing my shocked classmates the best bit : when Michael pulls out his penis and introduces it to his girlfriend Katherine. he calls it Ralph.'

'Sixteen-year-old Winter Mae Jones knows exactly what she wants. A career in fashion design. There’s only one thing standing in her way. She’s fat. And fat girls don’t work in the fashion industry.

'So Winter decides to take matters into her own hands. She goes on a diet, which at first makes her feel fab and in control. It’s only when things get out of hand that she comes to realise that, not only has she less control than she thought, but also that her weight has nothing to do with what’s holding her back.'
