"Woolf . . . writes about women's addiction to dieting and
self-deprecation with eye-opening candor."—More Magazine
"Woolf uses her distinctively conversational voice and nimble sense
of humor to keep her arresting insights into our obsession with
thinness as well as modern-day feminism and fertility from getting
too downbeat. Candid, revealing, and invaluable." Booklist
