Bryony's been in love with her best friend's big brother for years, but she's never made a move. For one thing, his last girlfriend was the full blonde cliche, and Bryony is pretty, intelligent, funny and - fat. 'Not fat. That's a really ugly word.' 'No uglier than "cat" or "hat" or "chat". It only sounds ugly because of the way people use it.' Skinny people love telling you it doesn't matter. The next minute they're going on about this fabulous diet that really works. Despite all the stereotypes, Bryony's on a campaign to get Matt. But if even her family and friends seem to have it in for her, the biggest problem of all is Bryony herself! (Libraries Australia)
